The  Outlook 

By  the  editor  of  THE  FILM  DAILY 

JUST  as  1924  proved  a  landmark  of  note  to 
the  motion  picture  industry,  the  outlook 
ior  1925  proves  as  promisingly  important. 
Broadly  speaking,  1924  was  a  splendidly 
successful  period  for  practically  all  engaged 
in  this  industry.  A  new  year  stretches 
ahead.  One  indeed  would  be  a  seer  to  antic- 
ipate some  of  the  probable  happenings — 
much  less  the  possibility  of  occurrences 
which  may  develop  during  1925 — because 
there  are  rumblings  and  indications  which, 
to  some  thinkers,  mean  much. 

Undeniably  the  greatest  problem  facing 
the  entire  industry  within  the  United  States 
is  that  which  exists  between  exhibitors  on  one  side,  and  distributors — backed 
by  producers — on  the  other.  This  problem  consists  broadly  of  combinations 
effected  for  buying  purposes,  the  allocation  of  product  by  one  exhibitor  to 
the  other,  and  as  a  result  the  inability  of  the  distributor  to  obtain  what  in 
his  opinion  is  a  fair  price  for  the  product  offered. 

It  is  quite  possible  that  during  1925  the  actual  locking  of  horns  relative 
to  this  question  will  not  occur.  It  may  be  that  the  great  battle  will  be 
fought  later.  But  there  will  be  skirmishes  all  along  the  line.  During  1924 
more  buying  combinations  developed  among  exhibitors  than  at  any  one 
period  in  the  history  of  the  industry  and  there  is  every  indication  that  these 
combinations  will  continue  to  be  organized.  This  has  resulted  in  a  marked 
decrease  in  revenue  to  a  large  number  of  distributors  and  serious  thought 
has  been  given  in  many  quarters  as  to  what  move  would  best  offset  this 
condition. 

On  the  other  hand  many  exhibitors  maintain  that  these  buying  com- 
binations (and  the  allocation  of  product)  is  but  the  natural  result  of  exhibitors 
seeking  to  protect  themselves  against  the  far-reaching  plans  of  distributois 
and  producers  in  the  development  of  their  theaters.  They  maintain — and 
there  is  a  certain  justification  to  their  claim — that  in  a  small  manner  they 
are  doing  only  what  the  larger  chain  operators  have  dene,  that  is,  protecting 
themselves  through  unified  buying  to  offset  the  effects  of  circuit  buying  by 
larger  and  more  powerful  interests. 

A  number  of  thinking  exhibitors  maintain  that  this  move  is  but  a 
natural  evolution  of  the  business  which  must  be  fought  through.  And  they 
frankly  admit  that  when  the  battle  occurs  it  will  be  costly  and  perhaps 
fatal  to  certain  interests. 

It  is  a  very  serious  question,  indeed,  as  to  whether  or  not  motion  pictures 
represent  a  phase  of  industry  which  can  best  be  handled  through  more  than 
a  limited  number  of  channels.  The  grave  question  arises  as  to  just  how 
many  such  channels  there  should  be  to  allow  the  industry  its  development 
and  growth  so  essential  and  necessary ;  at  the  same  time  keep  within  bounds 
production  and  distribution  costs  so  that  the  eventual  buyer,  the  exhibitor, 
may  have  pictures  at  a  price,  and  under  such  conditions,  which  will  allow 
him  to  remain  in  business  and  at  the  same  time  earn  a  sufficient  revenue 
upon  his  investment  to  justify  his  continuance  in  this  business. 

After  all,  it  is  the  exhibitor  who,  in  the  end,  must  justify  the  existence 
of  producer,  or  distributor,  or  both.     It  is  true  that  each  producing  and

distributing-  interest  can — and  might  easily — protect  themselves  against  ex- 
hibiting difficulties  by  organizing  and  operating  a  chain  of  theaters  of  their 
own.  It  is  also  quite  likely  that  when  the  first  serious  financial  depression 
of  nation-wide  strength  develops  that  these  very  chains  with  their  huge 
size  and  tremendous  cost  of  operation  might  easily  be  the  first  to  weaken 
under  such  conditions  and  break  up  much  more  quickly  than  where  an 
exhibitor  owning  one  or,  at  best,  a  few  houses,  might  breast  the  storm. 

The  operation  of  large  groups  of  theaters  is  a  most  expensive  under- 
taking. No  matter  how  well  they  are  financed,  and  how  well  they  are 
operated,  and  with  what  degree  of  success  they  develop,  it  is  extremely 
doubtful  as  to  whether  or  not  such  a  surplus  could  be  accumulated  over  a 
prosperous  period  to  meet  the  demands  when  misfortune  occurs  or  when 
business  drops  far  away.  This  is  one  of  the  problems  of  a  possible  situation 
which  might  easily  retard  such  growths  and  yet  at  this  writing  there  is 
every  indication  that  before  1925  comes  to  an  end  that  very  definite  steps 
will  have  been  made  toward  the  assembling  of  a  chain  of  theaters — one 
chain  at  least — the  importance  and  domination  of  which,  in  a  certain  terri- 
tory, can  neither  be  underestimated  nor  discounted. 

FOREIGN  SITUATION 

Whether  due  to  the  financial  condition,  the  general  business  situation 
or  what,  the  foreign  market  as  a  whole  made  little  material  strides  during 
the  past  year  and  the  outlook  is  far  from  inspiring  as  to  what  might  be 
expected  during  1925.  Undeniably  the  greatest  hope  lies  in  German  pro- 
ductions. Very  few  producers  of  importance  and  merit,  and  who  by  virtue 
of  their  past  records  are  liable  to  present  material  which  will  have  an 
international  box  office  demand,  seem  to  be  in  readiness  to  improve  upon 
their  output  of  1924. 

In  England  productions  of  this  type  have  narrowed  down  considerably, 
there  being  but  several  companies  in  a  position  to  make  such  pictures.  In 
France  there  is  little  to  hope  for,  and  in  Italy  there  is  not  a  great  deal  more. 
Other  continental  countries,  except  Germany,  do  not  seem — at  this  writing — 
to  be  in  a  much  better  position,  even  Sweden  promising  less  than  heretofore. 
But  in  Germany  production  seems  on  a  most  interesting  basis  and  it  should 
not  be  surprising  if  Germany  becomes  the  foremost  foreign  production 
center.  If  the  German  producer  will  relieve  himself  of  a  certain  sense  of 
morbid,  heaw  tendencies  and  produce  the  type  of  picture  which  seems  to 
be  in  demand  all  over  the  world,  he  may  go  far. 

It  might  be  well  to  present  this  thought  to  those  producers  who.  living 
abroad,  constantly  comment  on  the  manner  in  which  American  distributors 
refuse  to  accept  their  production  for  showing  in  the  United  States :  The 
people  of  this  country  have  certain  ideas  as  to  what  they  consider  box-office 
entertainment.  American  producers  and  distributors  have  learned  this  to 
their  cost.  If  foreign  producers  would  study  the  American  market,  would 
investigate  and  learn  the  type  of  picture  desired  in  this  country  and  then 
oroceed  to  make  them,  perhaps  they  would  not  be  as  complaining  as  they 
have  been  and  are. 

It  is  true  that  several  productions  of  undeniable  strength  and  value 
which  apparently  should  have  met  with  success  in  America  have  been 
rejected  by  distributors  of  importance,  and  while  it  is  generally  claimed 
that  foreign  pictures  are  sfiven  no  opportunity  in  America,  it  is  interesting 
to  note  that  a  survey  made  late  in  December  shows  that  during  1924  about 
25  foreign-made  pictures  were  in  the  hands  of  American  distributors  of 
consequence,  and  that  many  of  these  pictures  failed  to  develop  any  great 
drawing  power  in  this  country.

1925 


THE  motion  picture  industry  looks  forward  with 
confidence  to  the  year  that  is  just  beginning. 

More  than  ever  are  its  various  elements — competitive 
commercially,  but  co-operative  for  the  general  Cause — 
living  up  to  their  responsibilities  to  the  public,  whose 
servants  we  all  are. 

The  1924  result  has  been  the  greatest  number  of  fine 
pictures  and  splendid  presentations  we  have  ever 
known.  Records  have  been  broken  for  long  runs  of 
pictures,  for  numbers  of  patrons  who  have  seen  these 
pictures,  for  receipts  from  them.  And  the  record- 
breakers  have  been  fine,  clean  pictures.  They  have 
been  artistic  as  well  as  commercial  successes.  They 
have  elevated  the  whole  industry  in  the  regard  of  the 
world. 

With  a  proper  feeling  of  gratification  for  our  progress, 
but  with  a  much  greater  feeling  of  gratitude  to  the 
public  which  made  that  progress  possible  by  its  sup- 
port and  encouragement,  we  will  all  press  forward. 
The  success  of  1924  is  but  the  urge  for  larger  accom- 
plishment in  1925.

The  Financial  Development  of  the  Film  Industry 

in  1924 


By  Richard  W.  Saunders,  Comptroller,  Famous  Players-Lasky  Corp.,  and  formerly  Cashier  National  Bank 

of  Commerce.  New  York 


The  greatest  progress,  in  my  opinion, 
has  been  along  the  following  lines: 

1.  The  steady  improvement  in  organi- 
zation, accounting,  auditing  and  business 
methods,  bringing  the  corporations  which 
compose  the  film  industry  into  favorable 
comparison  with  other  successful  lines  of 
industry.  Of  these,  the  adoption  of  the 
budget  system,  under  which  the  income 
and  expenditures  of  the  corporation,  are 
charted  in  advance  and  lived  up  to,  is 
perhaps  the  most  far  reaching. 

2.  The  strengthening  of  certain  cor- 
porations by  amalgamation  and  the  elimi- 
nation of  certain  weaker  companies  will 
in  the  end  strengthen  the  industry.  While 
there  always  will  be  and  should  be,  in- 
dependent companies,  the  stronger  ones 
are  able  to  better  absorb  the  losses  that 
from  time  to  time  must  occur  and  are 
better  able  to  sustain  the  steady  output 
which  is  the  life  of  any  established  in- 
dustry. 

3.  The  recognition  by  practically  all 
motion  picture  directors  of  the  limitations 
required  for  financial  success  and  their 
willingness  to  cooperate.  This  does  not 
mean  any  sacrifice  of  artistic  values  as 
they  are  suitably  considered  when  the  bud- 
get amount  is  fixed,  tying  in  with  the 
budget  total  for  production.  The  great 
gain  this  year  has  been  in  the  changed 
attitude  of  directors  from  regarding  the 
financial  limit  as  a  restraint,  to  its  recog- 
nition as  a  vital  consideration  in  the  mak- 
ing of  the  picture. 

4.  The  greatly  improved  attitude  of 
the  banking  and  financial  world  towards 
the  industry.  The  above  improvements 
have  contributed  and  a  number  of  ex- 
planatory articles  in  financial  organs  have 
helped.  One  conservative  bank  has  issued 
in  its  magazine  an  account  of  the  "stabi- 
lization" of  the  industry. 

5.  The  increased  favor  with  which  the 
public  regards  the  industry  and  the  sup- 
port they  now  give  it  at  the  box  office. 
True,  the  public  has  become  more  dis- 
criminating and  insists  upon  the  kind  of 
picture  it  enjoys.  During  the  year,  as 
perhaps  never  before,  the  producers  and 
the  public  have  understood  each  other 
better. 

6.  Considerable  progress  has  been 
made  in  the  relations  between  producer 
and  exhibitor  and  it  looks  in  time  as 
though  they  would  settle  down  in  the 
same  manner  as  other  wholesalers  and  re- 
tailers. Their  interests  are  largely  the 
same.  What  helps  or  hurts  one,  helps  or 
hurts  the  other.  The  producer  must  ask 
prices  that  will  enable  him  to  go  on  mak- 


ing pictures  and  pay  dividends  on  his  capi- 
tal and  the  exhibitor  must  get  the  pictures 
at  a  price  that  will  enable  him  to  repay 
his  investment  with  profit.  The  benefits 
of  production  on  a  reasonably  large  scale 
enabling  the  exhibitor  to  contract  for  a 
good  part  of  his  product  at  one  time,  are 
now  recognized  and  the  dangers  mini- 
mized. For  that  reason,  combines  on  the 
part  of  exhibitors  for  purchasing  pictures, 
if.  they  transgress  the  reasonable  price  re- 
turn to  producers,  are  likely  to  do  the  in- 
dustry a  great  deal  of  harm. 

7.  The  number  of  new  companies  be- 
ing organized  as  shown  by  the  lists  of 
state  incorporations,  for  picture  produc- 
tion, etc.,  would  seem  to  be  out  of  pro- 
portion. A  great  number  are  bound  to 
fail  and  this  brings  about  a  reaction 
against  the  industry  on  the  part  of  the 
financial  backers.  As  the  bankers  now 
pretty  well  understand  the  safe  methods 
of  financing  such  projects,  a  large  part 
of  the  funds  come  from  individuals,  lured 
into  doing  so  by  the  prospect  of  large  re- 
turns. Through  the  Hays  office  and  its 
affiliations,  a  number  of  flagrant  cases 
have  been  stopped. 

In  this  connection,  several  bankers  have 
expressed  during  the  year,  their  satis- 
faction with  the  outcome  of  their  loans 
to  motion  picture  companies.  The  loss 
to  banks  generally  has  been  trifling. 

8.  The  benefit  of  the  organization 
headed  by  Mr.  Will  H.  Hays  has  been 
of  steady  growth  during  the  year.  Its 
membership  is  steadily  increasing  and  the 
various  lines  of  effort,  conducted  with  dig- 
nity and  fairness,  are  attaining  permanent 
and  far  reaching  results  for  the  good  of 
the  industry  and  all  concerned. 

9.  The  splendid  grade  of  pictures  pro- 
duced during  the  year,  has  done  more 
than  all  other  factors,  in  bringing  about 
financial  stability.  These  are  the  back- 
bone of  the  industry,  the  stock  in  trade; 
and  that  it  is  of  such  uniform  excellence 
means  prosperity  and  financial  safety. 

10.  Among  the  numerous  other  bene- 
fits to  the  industry  in  1924,  might  be 
mentioned  the  advertising,  which  has 
gained  in  beauty  and  drawing  power;  the 
improvement  in  trade  papers,  which  are 
more  calm  and  judicial  in  their  treatment 
of  pertinent  subjects;  and  in  general 
throughout  all  the  branches  of  the  indus- 
try, there  has  been  an  arrangement  of 
the  whole  to  the  parts,  an  adjustment  of 
each  to  suit  the  needs  of  another,  that  can- 
not but  be  of  great  permanent  value. 

To  sum  up,  the  industry  during  1924 
Rained  tremendously  in  STABILITY.

The  Box  Office  Test 

The  infallible  test  of  stars  and  pictures  is  the  box  office. 

In  an  effort  to  determine  which  stars,  and  what  pictures  proved  the 
best  box  office  attractions  during  1924,  THE  FILM  DAILY  forwarded  a 
questionnaire  to  a  list  of  5,000  exhibitors  during  September  and  October. 

While  the  result  was  not  as  gratifying  as  was  hoped,  over  1,600  replies 
were  received. 

The  result  appears  below;  and  opposite  the  result  of  a  poll  made  by 
Photoplay  Magazine  in  the  Spring  of  1924.

A  comparison  of  the  selections  made  in  the  Spring  and  Fall  is  inev- 
itable, and  shows  some  interesting  results.  In  the  Photoplay  poll,  Mary 
Pickford  topped  the  list  of  stars.  She  ties  for  eighth  place  in  the  Fall  poll 
with  Reginald  Denny  and  Colleen  Moore.  Fairbanks  drops  from  second 
place  on  the  Photoplay  list  to  seventh. 

Harold  Lloyd  topped  all  the  other  stars  by  a  tremendously  wide 
margin  in  the  Fall  poll,  while  he  was  onlv  in  seventh  place  in  the  Photoplay 
list.  Gloria  Swanson  was  second  on  THE  FILM  DAILY  poll  while  she 
was  third  on  the  Photoplay  poll.  Tom  Mix  took  third  place  in  the  Fall 
poll  as  against  eighth  on  the  Photoplay  poll.  Meighan  is  fourth  on  the 
late  poll  as  against  fifth  on  the  Spring  record.  Norma  Talmadge  takes 
fourth  place  as  against  sixth  on  the  Spring  poll;  Corinne  Griffith  replaces 
Pola  Negri  on  the  list,  and  Valentino  comes  in  for  a  place,  while  he  did 
not  appear  on  the  Spring  vote.    Colleen  Moore  also  gets  in  the  late  list. 

Among  the  directors,  Jimmy  Cruze  stepped  far  and  away  from  all 
others,  and  easily  topped  the  Fall  poll,  replacing  Cecil  DeMille,  who  headed 
the  Photoplay  list.  He  takes  second  place  in  the  later  list.  Ingram  re- 
mains in  third  position,  as  in  the  former  poll,  and  Griffith  is  fourth  as 
against  second  place  on  Photoplay's  list.  Frank  Lloyd  takes  his  place — 
doubtless  because  of  The  Sea  Hawk,  on  the  Fall  poll,  as  does  Henry 
King,  doubtless  because  of  The  White  Sister.  Sidney  Olcott  finds  sev- 
enth place.  Allan  Dwan  drops  to  eighth  place  from  fourth  on  the  Spring 
list,  and  Neilan,  Wm.  DeMille  and  George  Fitzmaurice  who  were  on 
the  Spring  list  are  eliminated  by  the  Fall  poll. 

Box  Office  Attractions 

THE  FILM  DAILY  went  further  than  Photoplay  and  asked  exhibi- 
tors to  record  their  best  box  office  attractions.    Here  is  the  list:

"Variety's"  First  Run  Box  Office  Records 

Through  the  courtesy  of  Simc  Silverman,  publisher  of  "Variety,"  the  first  run  box 
office  figures,  a  feature  of  that  weekly  publication,  have  been  collated  to  show  the  business 
done  by  various  features  at  a  number  of  important  first  run  theaters  of  the  United  States. 

Below  will  be  found  reports  for  50  weeks  of  1924,  together  with  the  title  of  the  feature 
which  did  the  highest,  as  well  as  the  lowest  business,  at  these  houses. 

While  the  publishers  of  THE  FILM  YEAR  BOOK  do  not  vouch  for  the  accuracy 
of  these  figures,  several  authorities,  important  as  leading  exhibitors,  are  responsible  for 
the  statement  that  the  figures  published  in  "Variety"  are  very  often  exceedingly  close  to 
the  actual  business  of  the  houses  mentioned.

article  on  the  cultural  effects  of  the  film,  by  Max 
Suberkrub,  which  appeared  in  The  Euchen  Review, 
the  organ  of  the  Eucken  Society,  and  translated 
for  "The  Dearborn  Independent,"  by  Prof.  Sam- 
uel F.  Darwin-Fox.  .It  is  an  extremely  concise 
analysis  of  the  educational  value  or  otherwise  of 
motion  pictures,  and  contains  a  wonderful  amount 
of  constructive  criticism  marked  by  incisiveness  and 
directness. 

Before  I  begin  to  discuss  the  cultural  effects 
of  the  Film,  I  may  perhaps  be  permitted  a  few 
remarks  on  the  spiritual  aspect  of  mankind,  more 
especially  the  world  of  apparitions: 

Nature  alone  is  the  primal  cause  of  this.  In 
every  direction  it  sends  forth  its  vibrations.  In 
the  brain  of  every  man  these  vibrations  take  form 
and  shape  according  to  the  play  of  the  visual, 
the  auditory  and  the  olfactory  nerves,  and  of 
all  the  other  senses. 

The  whole  process  is  natural :  as  the  influence, 
so  the  picture.  If  the  initial  idea  is  true,  the 
image  thereof  will  be  true  also.  So  much  by  way 
of  necessary  prolegomenon;  I  now  proceed  to 
discuss  the  Film  itself. 

What  does  the  Film  set  out  to  effect?  It  aims 
at  the  creation  of  a  picture  of  events  which  is 
entirely  true  to  life.  If  the  Film  produces  a  real 
and  true  picture,  it  must  perforce  produce  a  real 
reflex  in  the  mind  of  the  people.  But  if  the 
natural  events  are  transformed  by  the  action 
of  the  Film,  the  picture  will  not  appear  con- 
sistent with  reality,  and  the  judgment  to  be 
formed  upon  it  will  depend,  to  a  large  exent, 
upon  the  personal  feeling  of  the  individual  spec- 
tator. From  this  point  of  view,  the  question 
is:  Can  the  Film  produce  natural  events  in  a 
manner  true  to  life? 

As  we  have  already  said,  man's  apprehension 
is  natural.  Nature  is  the  causa,  the  brain  is 
the  receiver.  In  the  presence  of  an  actual  event, 
all  the  senses  are  at  work.  Let  us  take  an 
instance.  When  looking  upon  a  burning  house, 
we  not  only  see  the  flames,  but  we  smell  the 
fire,  we  hear  the  crackling,  perhaps  even  shrieks. 
We  stand  in  the  throng,  careless  of  the  weather, 
hypnotically  gripped  by  the  event  itself.  Or  we 
stand  upon  the  seashore.  We  see  not  only  the 
foaming  of  the  waves,  but  the  mere  impression 
conveys  to  us  the  thundering  break  of  the  surge ; 
it  is  for  us  to  battle  against  the  storm ;  and, 
drenched  to  the  skin,  we  feel  the  power  of  the 
ocean. 

All  these  natural  events  are  accompanied  by  a 
host  of  tiny  details.  But  the  Film  must  produce 
something  for  the  eye  alone.  And  whereas  in 
actual  life  each  sense  is  occupied  to  a  greater 
or  lesser  degree,  the  Film  is  capable  of  pro- 
viding a  mere  substitute,  or  counterfeit,  of  varying 
exactitude  or  inexactitude. 

So  far  as  the  human  senses  are  concerned,  our 
conclusions  must  be  as  follows : 

(1)  The  imagination  of  the  spectator  must  sup- 
ply for  itself  the  missing  parts  of  the  pic- 
ture. This  necessarily  results  in  an  over- 
straining of  the  senses. 

(2)  No  time  limit  is  exacted  in  the  case  of 
incidents  thrown  upon  the  screen.  This  is 
counter  to  nature  and  reality. 

When  a  Film  is  reeled  off  in  this  unnaturally 
quick  manner,  our  powers  of  apprehension  are 
outrun,  and  we  cannot  properly  follow  the  se- 
quence :  all  our  senses  are  confused,  and  we  are 
thrown  back  for  enlightenment  upon  the  textual 
indications  of  the  Film. 

If  the  Film  represents  incidents  and  events  in 
a  manner  true  to  nature,  the  imagination  will 
not  be  too  sorely  strained.  But  if  the  Film  repre- 
sents the  events  of  human  life  in  a  manner  that 
is  false  to  fact,  the  result  may  spell  disaster  for 
an  entire  nation.  Excessive  concentration  upon 
pictures  robs  one  of  the  ability  to  estimate  and 
criticise  natural  life;  through  false  productions 
we  form  false  conclusions,  which  lead  inevitably 
to  false  opinions. 


An  Analysis  of  Films 

How,  then,  from  a  practical  viewpoint,  stands 
the  Film  today?  I  regret  today  that  I  myself 
was  unable  to  draw  any  comparison  between  the 
so-called  good  films  and  those  that  are  worthless. 
And  this  for  two  excellent  reasons:  first,  be- 
cause the  notices  in  the  daily  newspapers  are 
not  by  any  means  luminous  in  this  particular 
respect ;  second,  because  the  Film  enterprises 
are  not  inclined  to  publish  the  programs  of  their 
plays.  I  must  therefore  content  myself  with 
quoting  the  statements  of  Walther  Konrad.  Out 
of  250  film-plays,  he  counted  97  murders,  45  sui- 
cides, 51  cases  of  adultery,  19  cases  of  tempta- 
tion, 22  cases  of  kidnapping  and  176  cases  of 
theft.  In  other  words:  murder,  39  per  cent; 
suicide,  18  per  cent;  adultery,  20  per  cent;  temp- 
tation, 8  per  cent  abduction,  9  per  cent;  theft, 
70  per  cent.  This  works  out  at  164  per  cent 
in  250  film-dramas.  The  criminal  statistics  of 
1919  voice  their  opinion  in  this  matter:  in  the 
years  past,  there  were  only  8.5  convictions:  in 
every  1,000  persons — that  is  thefts,  2  in  every 
1000;  murder  and  manslaughter,  only  1.8  in 
every  1.0CO. 

These  figures  show  that  natural  events  have 
been  represented  in  an  unnatural  manner. 

But,  on  the  other  hand,  it  may  here  be  ob- 
jected that  other  social  factors  are  at  hand  to 
influence  the  populace.  The  objection  is  plaus- 
ible ;  but  the  fact  remains  that  the  influence  of 
the  Film  is  paramount  as  a  means  of  influencing— 
and  enslaving — the  people.  For  the  Film,  like 
Bengal  fires,  enlightens  their  Txarts  with  incidents, 
motives  and  passions,  lucid,  monstrous,  incon- 
ceivable in  actual  life,  whereas  the  result  of  all 
the  great  spectacles  of  Shakespeare,  Schiller  and 
other  dramatists  have  the  power  to  influence  and 
to  thrill  people  for  months,  for  years,  and  some- 
times even  for  a  lifetime. 

All  the  passions,  such  as  love,  hate,  fear, 
faith,  satire,  must  find  their  place  in  the  Film, 
and  appear  in  as  concentrated  a  manner  as  pos- 
sible. In  from  ten  to  fifteen  minutes  one  can 
see  what  one  cannot  read  about  in  several  hours. 
It  is  easy  to  understand  that  such  film-material 
as  Konrad  has  described,  and  as  is  so  often 
shown  upon  the  screens  today,  is  apt  to  corrupt 
the  senses  and  the  nerves  of  the  inspectors :  even 
to  the  extent  of  bringing  about  disorders  of  the 
nerves,  and  actually  leading  people  astray,  in  a 
way  we  continually  read  about  in  the  police  news. 

These  figures  collected  by  Konrad  point  to 
something  still  worse  than  all  this:  he  asserts  that 
the  Film  has  robbed  the  majority  of  the  people 
of  the  sense  of  true  judgment;  and,  through 
the  repeated  reproduction  of  unreal  events  in 
life,  it  has  put  them  entirely  on  the  wrong  track. 
The  worst  calamity  of  all  is  that  the  false  imag- 
ery of  the  Motion  Picture  has  made  people 
lose  every  notion  of  truth. 

Should  Be  an  Educator 

The  full  extent  of  the  evil  effects  of  the  Film 
upon  the  population  at  large  cannot  as  yet  be 
gauged ;  for  there  are  no  certain  statistics  to  hand. 
However,  these  are  assuredly  cultural  facts  which 
indicate  how  the  Film  reacts  upon  the  nation. 

The  Film  should  be  a  public  educator  on  the 
largest  possible  scale;  but  this  is  still  Utopian, 
for  the  first  experiments  in  this  direction  are 
only  now  in  course  of  being  made.  To  go  into 
thia  particular  matter  more  fully  is,  for  the  mo- 
ment, outside  my  province;  but  I  wish  to  state 
and  to  explain  the  real  value  of  the  Film,  and 
briefly  to  hint  how  that  value  may  be  enhanced. 

The  Film  should  become  an  organ  of  Public 
education  for  the  following  reasons: 

(1)  An  educational  organ  of  this  kind  is  very 
necessary  today;  for  education  has  ceased 
to  be  the  privilege  of  a  single  class,  and 
it  is  recognized  that  the  happiness  of  man- 
kind is  ultimtaely  based,  to  a  very  large 
extent,  upon  its  education. 

(2)  The  film  is  evidently  the  cheapest  and  easi- 
est organ  of  education.

(3)  From  the  viewpoint  of  a  sane  and  true  So- 
cialism, it  is  the  most  efficient  weapon  for 
winning  a  more  exalted  happiness  for  the 
majority  of  the  people. 
To  insure  success  in  the  foregoing  points,  and 
to   restrict   and    obviate   all   danger   of  mischief 
to  culture,  it  is  necessary 

(a)  to  reproduce  upon  the  screen  the  events  of 
life  in  a  lifelike  manner; 

(b)  to  abide,  proportionately,  by  the  fundamen- 
tal decencies  of  life. 

Moreover,  if  the  Film  is  to  become  an  educator 
of  public  opinion,  the  following  additional  points 
must  be  carefully  borne  in  mind: 

(1)  All  lies  must  be  ruled  out. 

(2)  Beauty  must  be  imparted  to  the  people; 
and  this  by  the  display  of  the  marvels  of 
of  natural  scenery,  and  by  films  demonstrat- 
ing the   growth  of  plants  in  every  detail. 

(3)  The  manners  of  life  prevailing  in  other  na- 
tions should  be  shown. 

(4)  Health  films. 

(5)  Films  picturing  famous  men,  and  the  pio- 
neers of  Truth. 

(6)  Sport   films    (athletic  demonstrations). 

(7)  Scientific  films,  explaining  all  the  factors 
of  National  Economy. 

(8)  Scientific  films,  proving  and  setting  forth 
theories,  and  so  forth. 

Up  to  the  present,  the  Film  has  wrought  great 
harm  to  the  nation;  yet  it  is  potentially  a  power- 
ful factor  in  imparting  education.  This  question 
needs  to  be  seriously  investigated;  but  I  must  for 
the  present  confine  myself  to  the  points  indicated 
above. 

We  have  now  traced  the  connection  that  ex- 
ists between  National  Economy  and  Culture ;  and, 
as  the  result  of  our  investigations,  we  may  set 
down  the  postulates  following: 

(1)  National  Economy  must  be  the  support  of 
the  entire  nation,  to  the  end  that  Culture 
may  be  developed. 

(2)  But  this  Culture  must  be  genuine  and 
authentic ;  it  must  avoid  all  tension  and 
aim  at  equipose;  and  by  the  fact  of  strip- 
ping away  all  base  and  degrading  influ- 
ences, it  will  react  upon  the  National  Econ- 
omy and  render  it  prosperous. 

That  is  the  ideal.  Let  us  now  consider  how  far 
the  Film  subserves  this  purpose. 

And  first  we  must  clearly  determine  what  con- 
stitutes economic  success  in  general.  Now,  if 
the  employes  of  a  firm  squandered  the  savings 
of  the  owner  in  rioting  and  alcohol,  this  is  not 
economic  success,  but  a  crime.  But  if  these  em- 
ployes were  to  use  the  money  to  give  their  child- 
ren a  better  education,  or  to  build  houses,  then 
it  might  be  considered  that  a  measure  of  econ- 
omic success  had  been  attained.  It  is  from  this 
standpoint  that  we  desire  to  examine  the  economic 
advantage  of  the  Film. 

The  increase  of  national  wealth,  through  export 
duties,  state  and  local  taxes,  and  the  employment 


of  workers,  is  manifestly  an  economic  advantage. 

On  the  other  hand,  the  fact  that  the  Film 
subverts  the  moral  life  of  the  community,  leads 
logically  to  the  conclusion  that  the  4-5  milliard 
marks  pocketed  by  the  proprietors  of  the  Pic- 
ture-Houses are  in  the  wrong  pockets — especially 
when  one  considers  that  the  bulk  of  the  money 
is  contributed  by  the  working-classes.  This  can 
be  statistically  proved  by  the  figures  of  the  seating- 
capacities  of  the  theaters,  the  takings,  and  the 
number  of  inhabitants  of  the  different  towns. 

What  could  be  done  with  the  money? 

(1)  A  theater  of  medium  size  requires  for  a 
year  the  sum  of  3-400,000  marks:  that  is 
to  say,  with  this  money  about  16,000  the- 
aters could  be  kept  up. 

(2)  How  many  institutes  of  education  could 
be  built,  if  one  takes  into  consideration 
that  the  public  library  in  Berlin  needed 
(in  1909)  about  250,000  marks  to  keep  it, 
going?  This  means  that  20,000  public  lib- 
raries could  be  provided  for  with  this 
money. 

And  would  not  this  money  suffice  to  support 
universities  and  high  schools  in  their  financial  dis- 
tress How  many  public  institutions  might  be 
built  in  more  than  one  city,  on  the  lives  of  the 
exemplary  institute  of  Popular  Instruction  founded 
by  Professor  Harms  in  Kiel :  how  many  children 
of  the  working-classes  might  be  given  a  free  edu- 
cation ? 

But  there  is  yet  another  side  light  to  be  thrown 
upon  the  cultural  aspect  of  the  Film. 

As  we  have  established,  the  Kinema  to  a  very 
large  extent  impresses  upon  the  public  a  totally 
false  impression  of  the  world  at  large;  it  robs 
the  masses  of  a  sound  criterion  of  life,  and  helps 
to  increase  the  tension  between  the  classes.  But 
the  aim  of  true  Culture  is  to  unite.  From  a  cul- 
tural point-of-view,  the  Film  undoubtedly  works 
havoc  in  the  public  mind:  for  instance,  it  creates 
bad  desires,  and  fosters  bad  habits.  How  far  this 
havoc  has  already  gone  can  hardly  be  expressed : 
it  is  impossible  to  estimate  it  in  numbers. 

No  doubt  the  national  wealth  has  been  increased 
by  the  Film.  But  no  doubt,  also,  these  material 
riches  are — and  will  be — nullified  by  the  concomit- 
ant decrease  of  culture.  And,  nothwithstanding 
the  apparent  pecuniary  advantage  derived  from 
the  Kinema,  it  may  yet  turn  out  to  be  a  positive 
disadvantage  to  economic  conditions. 

These  are  the  facts.  We  cannot  retrace  our 
steps.  As  we  have  pointed  out,  the  power  of 
the  Film  is  tremendous  :  the  Kinema  is  packed  with 
several  million  spectators  day  by  day. 

Steps  must  be  taken  to  fight  the  evil  tendencies 
of  the  Film,  and  to  encourage  and  develop  the 
tendencies  that  are  good.  All  who  recognize  tnc 
truth,  and  who  are  cognizant  of  their  strength, 
must  straightway  do  battle  for  the  sake  of  that 
truth — else  they  will  sin  alike  against  the  laws 
of  their  interior  being,  all  the  laws  which  govern 
the  world. 


The  Child  and  the  Cinema 


(From  a  lecture  delivered  in  London,  at  Stoll's 
Picture  Theater  on  April  15  by  Dr.  C.  W.  Kim- 
mins,  M.  A.,  of  the  Cinema  Commission  of  Great 
Britain.) 

We  (the  Commission)  had  before  us  a  very 
large  number  of  witnesses,  some  good  and  some 
very  bad,  but  whenever  any  very  serious  witness 
came  before  us  and  made  a  complaint  of  any 
particular  film,  we  always  put  that  down  as  a 
film  to  be  seen.  We  spent  quite  a  lot  of  our 
time  during  the  commission  in  seeing  what  were 
reported  to  be  improper  films.  We  found  that 
some  witnesses  had  been  very  neurotic  and  their 
criticisms  were  of  no  value.  In  other  cases  there 
was  a  certain  foundation. 

The  call  of  the  cinema  to  the  child  is  an  extra- 
ordinary thing.  If  you  go  into  the  cinemas  in 
the  East  End  of  London  and  see  the  crowds  of 
poor  children  having  a  delightful  evening,  thor- 
oughly enjoying  everything  they  see,  you  would 
appreciate  their  value  to  the  full. 


There  is  often  a  connection  between  a  film 
and  a  fairy  story  which  is  so  attractive.  That 
undoubtedly  is  one  reason  of  its  very  great  appeal. 
During  the  Commission,  I  thought  it  would  be 
interesting  to  find  out  something  about  the  fav- 
ourite films  of  children,  so,  as  I  was  Chief  In- 
spector of  Schools  then,  I  sent  round  to  a  certain 
number  of  schools  in  the  very  poor  districts, 
and  other  in  well-to-do  districts,  and  obtained 
answers  to  this  question:  "Give  an  account  of 
the  film  which  you  have  seen  which  you  liked 
best."  They  went  over  the  films  they  had  seen 
and  sent  me  in,  I  believe,  a  fairly  faithful  record 
of  the  tavourite  film.  I  analysed  some  6,000  films 
in  that  way,  and  this  was  the  result : 
The   Children's  Voice 

Domestic  and  fairy  story  films    25% 

Adventure  films    15% 

Comic   films    15% 

War  films  (this  was  during  the  war)    11%

Great  differences  were  seen  between  the  boys 
and  girls  of  the  same  ages  in  their  choice  of 
films. 

What  struck  me  most  of  all  was  the  astonishing 
fact  that  no  less  than  92  per  cent  of  the  children 
in  the  schools  from  which  I  had  records  were 
cinema-goers.  Out  of  3,000  children  in  poor 
districts  there  were  only  thirty-two  boys  and  fifty 
girls  who  had  not  been  to  the  cinema. 

Here  are  some  of  the  children's  replies : 
From  a  non-picturegoer :     "My  reasons  for  not 
going   to    the   cinema    are,    that    the   heat  goes 
to  my  head,  and  also  found  out  that  germs  like 
the  dark,  and  so  cinemas  are  too  unhealthy." 

One  child  said :  "The  picture  I  liked  best  is 
like  a  meadow.  It  has  flowers  and  little  hills. 
I  like  it  because  it  makes  you  think  you  are  in 
the  country  yourself.  It  also  learns  you  your 
nature  study." 

Another  example:  "The  picture  I  liked  most 
was  not  a  funny  story  nor  a  drama,  but  just 
views  of  water,  wavey  and  curly,  and  also  some 
falls.  The  falls  were  most  beautiful,  splashing 
and  sparkling  in  sunny  France.  The  water  first 
turned  a  beautiful  blue  and  then  it  sparkled  with 
a  silver  tone.  Another  picture  was  of  the  river, 
and  sometimes  the  water  did  not  sparkle,  it  was 
dark  and  sullen." 

Psychologically,  I  find  it  interesting  to  note 
certain  things  developing  at  certain  ages,  and  one 
thing  that  struck  me  very  much  was  the  love  of 
detail  of  a  child  of  12  years  of  age.  The  cinema 
might  be  invaluable  for  purposes  of  composition 
and  essay  writing  gerenally. 

Moralists  at  13 
At  the  age  of  13  there  is  a  tendency  to  look 
for  moral  purpose  in  the  film — for  example,  what 
is  known  as  the  reform  of  the  beer  drinker. 

It  is  in  the  very  early  stages  that  the  Charlie 
Chaplin  influence  is  very  great,  and  this  is  be- 
cause Charlie  Chaplin  does  things  in  his  films 
that  children  are  told  not  to  do,  and  that  natur- 
ally appeals  to  them.  I  thought  I  would  construct 
a  Charlie  Chaplin  curve  in  connection  with  this 
investigation.  I  found  that  at  the  age  of  12 
or  12J4,  children  began  to  tire  of  this  type  of 
film — at  this  age  it  almost  disappears. 

One  thing  that  struck  the  members  of  the  Com- 
mission who  had  to  go  to  the  cinema,  sometimei 
two  or  three  times  a  week,  was  that  the  children 
who  were  watching  the  film  could  follow  far  bet- 
ter than  we  could.  We  sometimes  had  the  great- 
est difficulty,  and  had  to  ask  the  children  to  ex- 
plain. This  was  because  they  had  the  cinema 
sense  and  we  had  not. 

There  is  really  no  doubt  that,  if  you  have  a 
really  good  lecturer,  a  good  educational  film  is 
of  priceless  value.  We  arranged  for  most  of  our 
children  to  see  the  South  Pole  film,  with  Sir 
Ernest  Shackleton  as  lecturer.  The  result  was 
of  the  greatest  educational  value. 

Memory  Tests 

The  Commission  decided  that  a  test  should  be 
made  to  see  whether  the  moving  image  is  re- 
tained by  the  child  longer  than  the  image  from 
a  lantern  slide.  Investigations  were  carried,  out 
and  the  results  proved  that  in  the  immediate 
memory  there  was  an  advantage  to  the  screen  of 
about  20  per  cent.,  i.  e.,  the  child  remembered 
the  images  from  a  moving  picture  far  better  than 
from  a  static  one.  We  further  experimented 
by  giving  them  four  months  rest  and  then  test- 
ing them  again.  The  result  was  the  same,  about 
20  per  cent  advantage  to  films.  After  a  further 
relapse  of  twelve  months  another  test  was  made 
with  practically  the  same  results.  Can  anyone 
deny  that,  taking  these  facts  into  consideration, 
the  film  will  prove  of  the  greatest  benefit  edu- 
cationally? 


'THE  EXHIBITOR'S  PLACE  IN 
THE  SUN" 

The  Exhibitor's  Herald 
of  Chicago  presented  a 
series  of  papers  written 
by  Sydney  S.  Cohen  un- 
der the  above  caption. 

Some  of  the  comments 
by  this  champion  of  tin 
small  exhibitor  are  listed 
below. 

*         *         •  * 

After  something  like 
quarter  of  a  century  he 
Sydney  'S    Cohen       still  is  on  the  defensive 

various  i  theater  owner,  who  is  guilty  of  no 
crime  other   thin  trying  to  run  his  business  in 

%TrJMft  the  theater  owner  is 

so  alien  to  our  usual  American  business  methods 
that  a  new  word  had  to  be  invented  to  express 
the  operation.  The  word  "gypmg"  has  been 
coinedPand  possibly  it  is  the  best  translation  of 
same.  »         »         »  « 

Most  of  the  "big"  film  companies— all  thr 
producer-dstributor-exhibitor  companies-demand 
that  theater  owners  buy  pictures  m  blocks  sight 
unseen."  The  gravity  of  this  evil  cannot  be  ex- 
aggerated.        *         *         *  * 

The  "block  booking"  system  undoubtedly  tends 
to  lower  the  average  of  quality  in  features  thus 
merchandized  and  thy*  unfavorably  affect  all 
screen   entertainment.  s 

It  is  the  obvious  intention  of  the  "block  book- 
ing" system  to  shut  out  the  independent  pro- 
ducer, to  nut  a  damper  on  initiative,  to  discourage 
and  kill  the  import  of  good  pictures  from  abroad 
and  to  possess  the  market  to  the  exclusion  of 
everybody  else  Such  a  system  poisons  the  air  ol 
the  industry  and  makes  breathing  for  the  theater 
owner  very  hard  indeed. 

*  *         *  * 

"Block  booking"  is  one  of  the  evils  that  denies 
to    the   theater   owner   his    "place   in    the  sun 
The    best    that    can    be   said    for   block  booking 
is   that    it   should   be   optional   with   the  theater 
owner,   but   never  compulsory. 

*  *         *  * 

The  theater  ownerr  controlling  a  producing 
and  distributing  machinery  can  afford  to  let  his 
theater  run  at  a  loss  and  still  represent  a  profit 
to  the  producing  and  distributing  branches  ot 
his  triune  organization.  All  of  the  losses  entailed 
in  the  operation  of  the  theater  owners  whose 
money  thus  obtained  through  film  rental  is  being 
used  for  the  purpose  of  creating  this  unclean 
and  destructive  competition.  _ 

I  find  no  parallel  for  such  conditions  anywhere 
in  the  commercial  world. 

*  »         *  ♦ 

I  regret  to  say  that  the  so-called  arbitration 
boards  fathered  by  the  producers  and  distributors, 
and  so  cleverly  advertised  by  them  through  the 
entire  press  of  the  country,  fail  in  the  essence 
of  all  arbitration.  They  are  as  technical  as 
any  court  of  law.  .  , 

In  most  instances,  these  so-called  boards  ot 
arbitration  are  nothing  more  than  collection  agen- 
cies, grievance  boards  for  producers  and  distri- 
butors intended  to  terrify  the  small  exhibitor  and 
those  unacquainted  with  legal  procedure. 

They  really  constitute  a  clearing  house  of  con- 
fidential information  from  which  black  lists  are 
compiled  in  plain  defiance  not  only  of  business 
ethics  but  of  the  penal  Taws.

There  is  probably  no  other  problem  in  the 
industry  which  more  vitally  interests  both  the 
producer  and  the  theater  owner.  If  conditions 
in  our  industry  were  normal  and  mutual,  I  should 
say  that  in  theory  at  least  playing  pictures  on 
percentage  impresses  one  as  a  sound  practice. 
Unfortunately,  conditions  in  our  industry  are  so 
distinctly  abnormal  and  lacking  in  mutuality  that 
percentage  playing  in  pratice  is  unsound  and 
unfair,  and  most  decidedly  detrimental  to  the 
best  interests  of  the  theater  owner.  Percentage 
playing  as  practiced  at  present,  serves  only  as  a 
source  of  information  to  competing  producer-dis- 
tributor-exhibitor concerns  of  good  locations  for 
new  theaters. 

Where  the  distributor  asks  a  guarantee  plus 
a  percentage  from  the  theater  owner,  the  guaran- 


tee is  as  much,  if  not  more,  than  what  the  rental 
could  ever  be  under  any  circumstances.  Such  a 
system  is  not  entitled  to  be  called  percentage 
playing. 


Every  theater  owner  who  yields  to  this  sort 
of  temptation  (guarantee  plus  percentage)  is  help- 
ing to  dig  his  own  grave. 

Make  it  your  business  to  look  at  more  pictures 
before  buying  them  .  Either  see  them  at  the 
exchange  or  better  still  have  a  print  shipped  to 
your  theater  for  screening.  Then  you  will  know 
if  the  picture  is  what  your  public  wants.  In  this 
way  you  will  tend  to  improve  the  quality  of  pic- 
tures produced. 


YOUR  CHILD  AND  THE 
MOVIES 
By  MARY  DAY  WINN 

in    The    Forecast    (America's  Leading 
Photo  Magazine) 

This  extremely  interesting  article,  por- 
tions of  which  are  reproduced  below, 
should  be  of  import  not  only  to  pro- 
ducers and  distributors  but  exhibitors, 
welfare  workers — in  fact  all  connected 
with  the  motion  picture  industry. 

In  part  Miss  Winn  says: 

An  interesting  proof  of  the  value  of  this  work 
(the  Hetter  Films  Committee)  to  the  producer 
came  from  a  survey  made  not  long  ago  in 
eight  representative  cities,  when  the  box  office 
receipts  on  several  superior  films  were  com- 
pared. In  the  eight  cities  which  had  no  Better 
Films  Committees,  the'  worth  while  pictures 
("Hail  the  Woman,''  "Sentimental  Tommy," 
"Disraeli"  and  "The  Good  Provider")  drew  so  few 
people  that  they  either  made  no  money  at  all 
or  were  a  loss  to  the  exhibitor  who  had  rented 
them.  In  the  eight  cities  of  similar  size  which 
had  active  committees,  every  one  of  these  films, 
except  one,  was  a  big  financial  success;  that  one 
broke  even.     These  facts  speak   for  themselves. 

Of  course,  no  matter  how  much  the  exhibitor 
may  wish  to  cooperate,  he  is  almost  never  ab- 
solutely free  to  choose  what  pictures  he  will 
show;  this  is  because  the  great  majority  of  theater 
owners  cannot  afford  to  book  except  in  wholesale 
lots;  that  is,  they  will  agree,  before  the  pictures 
are  made,  to  take  all  the  productions  of  certain 
companies.  They  do  not  want  however,  pictures 
emphasizing  violence  or  sex  which  are  lacking 
in  entertainment  or  artistic  value  any  more  than 
does  the  discriminating  patron,  and  conscientious 
exhibitors  have  even  been  known  to  shelve  a  poor 
film  obtained  on  contract  and  substitute  another 
at  extra  expense.  *  *  * 

Further  proof — if  proof  were  needed — that 
the  right  sort  of  moving  pictures  inspire  both 
young  and  old  to  read,  comes  from  a  report  pub- 
lished in  the  Library  Journal  by  Irving  H.  Hart, 
Director  of  the  Iowa  State  Teachers'  College  Ex- 
tension Division.  He  states  that  the  books  of 
fiction  published  prior  to  January  1,  1920  which 
are  in  great  demand  at  the  public  libraries  are,  in 
order : 

Three  Musketeers 

Treasure  Island 

Ees  Miserables 

Tom  Sawyer 

Count  of  Monte  Cristo 

David  Copperfield 

Call  of  the  Wild 

Ivanhoe 

Jane  Eyre 

Vanity  Fair 

The  titles  of  ninety  others  next  in  demand  are 
also  given. 

"Two  predominating  influences,"  says  Mr.  Hart, 
"are  evident  in  determining  the  content  of  this 
list ;  the  'movies'  and  required  school  readings. 
One  librarian  says,  T  regret  that  our  list  is  such 


a  poor  class  of  literature — dare  I  use  that  word 
at  all? — but  the  public  has  made  the  demand. 
We  are  thankful  that  the  movies  have  helped 
to  add  the  only  two  really  good  ones  (Three 
Musketeers  and  Connecticut  Yankee).  The  movie 
influence  may  be  seen  in  the  rank  of  the  first 
five  books  in  the  list  and  in  at  least  seventeen,  of 
the  first  twenty-nine.  It  is  probable  that  'The 
Three  Musketeers"  will  always  continue  to  be 
numbered  among  the  books  of  fiction  in  greatest 
demand,  but  its  immediate  priority  doubtless  owes 
more  to  the  art  of  Douglas  Fairbanks  than  to 
that  of  Alexandre   Dumas."  *  *  * 

Miss  Winn  then  goes  into  the  value  of  the 
Children's  special  matinees,  saying:  These  juvenile 
matinees  seem  to  have  been  especially  successful 
in  the  South  Eastern  states,  where  they  have  been 
adopted  by  17  cities.  The  exhibitor,  in  these 
cases,  guarantees  a  performance  with  pictures 
especially  suitable  for  children,  and  various  civic 
organizations,  including  the  schools  and  the  lib- 
raries, support  his  effort  by  trying  to  guarantee 
the  audience,  for  it  is  unreasonable  to  expect  any 
manager  to  run  a  children's  matinee  to  empty 
houses.  Attendance  at  these  matinees  has  ranged 
from  small  beginnings  to  1,500  weekly  in  Atlanta, 
at  two  theaters  combined;  875  in  Charlotte,  North 
Carolina,  and,  most  remarkable  record  of  all,  1,200 
at  the  initial  matinee  in  Knoxville,  Tenessee,  with 
an  overflow  of  1,000.  The  attendance  at  chil- 
dren's matinees  in  Albany,  New  York,  where  they 
have  been  given  successfully  for  ten  years  under 
the  direction  of  Mrs.  F.  W.  Clarke  of  the  Al- 
bany Mothers'  Club  is  sometimes  as  high  as 
3,000. 

The  cost  of  admission  to  these  juvenile  per- 
formances is  always  less  than  at  the  adult  per- 
formances ;  often  it  is  practically  free  of  charge ; 
always  there  are  many  free  tickets  for  institu- 
tional children,  teachers — who  act  as  chaperones — 
librarians,  and  so  forth.  When  there  is  a  charge, 
it  is  usually  five  or  ten  cents;  sometimes  it  is 
five  cents  plus  a  coupon,  clipped  from  a  local 
newspaper.  Many  ingenious  methods  have  been 
adopted  by  the  exhibitors  and  by  cooperating 
organizations  to  attract  the  children  to  these 
matinees,  rather  than  to  the  adult  ones  during  the 
week.  For  instance,  J.  P.  Harrison,  an  exhibitor 
of  Waco.  Texas,  announced  an  annual  "Toy  Mati- 
nee." Admission  was  given  to  this  in  return 
for  a  cast-off  toy,  a  doll,  a  drum  or  a  book.  The 
toys  thus  collected  were  distributed  by  charitable 
organizations  to  the  needy  children  of  Waco. 

Another  manager  in  Columbia,  South  Carolina, 
accepted  as  the  price  of  admission  to  an  Easter 
performance,  a  colored  egg,  to  be  used  in  an 
egg  rolling  contest  after  the  play.  Other  methods 
of  interesting  the  youngsters  in  these  performances 
have  been  by  the  introduction  of  local  talent 
such  as  a  Dance  of  the  Roses  by  Costumed  School 
children  at  the  Tivoli  Theater  in  Chattanooga ; 
the  giving  away  of  prizes — rabbits,  chickens,  dolls, 
scout  knives — the  admitting  free  of  boys  with 
kites  and  girls  with  dolls,  with  the  giving  of 
prizes  for  the  best  of  these,  and  group  singing 
by   the  cildren  under  competent  leadership. 

In  many  places  matinees  at  which  educational 
pictures  have  been  shown  are  followed  up  by  dis- 
cussion in  the  schools,  thus  linking  the  screen 
i<i  the  school  curriculum  At  the  matinees  of 
ITa'-ry  Crandall,  a  large  exhibitor  of  Washington.

D.  C.  and  a  warm  advocate  of  juvenile  matinees, 
a  story  teller  is  provided  as  part  of  the  per- 
formance, and  special  educational  pictures  are 
shown  in  cooperation  with  the  school  authorities. 

Jt  need  not  be  imagined  that  because  these  plays 
are  given  at  such  reduced  rates  or  for  no  rates 
at  all  they  are  a  losing  business  for  the  exhibitors. 
Far  from  it.  Mr.  Harrison,  of  Waco,  whose 
methods  have  already  been  described,  says  that 
his  are  always  financially  successful;  "I  have  often 
said  that  clean  shows  and  the  children  built  my 
theater."  Another  exhibitor  who  has  cooperated 
wholeheartedly  with  the  local  Better  Films  Com- 
mittee declares  that  his  house  has  been  lifted  from 
a  daily  loss  to  one  of  the  best  paying  of  its 
capacity  on  the  West  coast. 

Some  pictures  which  have  proven  especially 
suitable  for  juvenile  performances  are  "Little  Lord 
Fauntleroy;"  "Grandma's  Boy;"  "The  Three 
Musketeers;"  "School  Days;"  "Penrod;"  "The 
Printer's  Devil"  (Wesley  Barry)  ;  "A  Sailor 
Made  Man"  (Charles  Ray;)  "Huck  and  Tom;" 
"Rebecca  of  Sunnybrook  Farm;"  "Down  to  the 
Sea  in  Ships;"  "The  Little  American,"  and  a  score 
of  others. 

All  the  efforts  for  movie  betterment  already 
described  involve  close  and  friendly  cooperation 
between  public  and  exhibitor.  With  the  right  kind, 
and  with  an  increasing  number  of  theater  owners, 
this  is  possible,  providing  always  that  the  would- 
be  reformers  approach  the  question  understanding^ 
and  remember  that  the  exhibitor  is  in  the  business 
primarily  to  make  money.  However,  a  variety 
of  other  solutions  have  been  attempted, — and  some 
with  considerable  success — whereby  the  exhibitor's 
place  is,  to  some  extent,  taken  by  a  school,  a 
church,  community  center,  recreation  commission, 
or  town,  county,  or  state  government.  In  this 
way  the  quality  of  the  film  is  controlled,  as  far 
as  practical  renting  conditions  permit,  by  groups 
whose  main  idea  is  clean  entertainment  and  uplift, 
rather  than  money-making. 

A  successful  example  of  school  control  may  be 
found  in  Backus,  Minnesota,  a  community  with  a 
population  of  only  three  hundred,  which  has  no 
commercial  moving  picture  house.  Here  the  school 
superintendent,  feeling  that  the  new  school  audi- 
torium should  he  put  to  use  as  an  entertainment 
centre  of  the  town,  has  established  and  run  suc- 
cessfully community  movies  of  a  high  grade,  whose 
admission  price — 10,  20  and  25  cents — paid  for  all 
the  equipment  and  slight  overhead  expenses  in  a 
year  and  a  half.  Pictures  are  shown  here  once  a 
week. 

An  example  of  extraordinarily  successful  church 
ownership  of  movies  may  be  found  in  Bloomfield. 
New  Jersey,  where  for  over  twelve  winters  the 
Men's  League  of  the  Westminister  Presbyterian 
Church  has  been  conducting  a  series  of  motion  pic- 
ture entertainments.  A  committee  is  in  charge, 
with  a  chairman  who  takes  his  job  very  seriously 
and  personally  views  in  nearby  towns  a  large  num- 
ber of  the  pictures  used  before  they  are  ordered, 
depending  for  information  about  the  rest  on  the 
advance  reports  of  the  National  Committee  for 
Better  Films.  The  entertainments,  which  include 
music  and  fifteen  minutes  of  community  singing, 
are  given  every  other  Friday  night,  from  Novem- 
ber 1st  to  May  1st.  They  consist  of  eight  enter- 
tainment programs  and  four  strictly  educational 
programs.  The  hall  used  seats  approximately  800 
people  and  is  always  full.  Subscription  tickets  are 
sold  for  the  season,  costing  $2.00  for  adults  and 
$1.20  for  children;  even  at  this  figure  the  venture 
nets  the  Men's  League  a  tidy  profit  each  year. 
There  is  one  motion  picture  theater  in  the  town, 
hut  since  the  owner  of  it  is  a  member  of  the 
Men's  Club  there  has  been  no  friction  there,  only 
the  friendliest  cooperation. 

Movies  in  connection  with  playgrounds  and 
community  centers,  to  which  children  may  safely 
be  taken,  are  becoming  increasingly  common,  being 
now  a  regular  part  of  the  public  program  of 
recreation  in  a  great  number  of  towns,  large  and 
small,  including  such  representative  ones  as  Chi- 
cago, Boston.  New  York,  Philadelphia,  Detroit. 
New  Haven,  Los  Angeles  and  a  host  of  others. 

For  example  The  Playground  tells  us  that  a  cost 
of  $175.77.  exclusive  of  the  original  expenditure 
for  equipment,  Community  Service  of  New  Haven 


entertained  more  that  25,000  people  in  the  summer 
of  1922  at  outdoor  moving  picture  shows. 

Miss  Maude  Wright,  of  Community  Service, 
who  was  in  charge  of  the  shows,  carried  her  screen 
projector  and  stand  in  a  Ford  car  and  herself  oper- 
ated the  motion  picture  machine,  which  was  taken 
around  to  12  different  neighborhoods.  A  number 
of  agencies  cooperated  to  make  these  outdoor 
performances  successful — among  them  the  motion 
picture  theaters  and  film  exchange  companies,  the 
Police  Department,  the  Superintendent  of  Parks, 
the  Superintendent  of  Lamps,  and  the  United 
Illuminating  Company  which  supplied  the  elec- 
tricity for  the  high-powered  light  required  by  the 
modern  projector  used. 

The  first  municipal  playhouse  erected  in  the 
United  States  was  the  handsome  Auditorium  which 
is  the  pride  of  Red  Wing,  Minnesota.  This  'ar 
.sighted  cemmunity  gift,  a  bequest  to  the  town 
from  Theodore  B.  Sheldon,  was  opened  in  1904, 
and  in  the  twenty  years  following  has  kept  an 
i.cnorable  record  of  clean  plays  and  moving  pic- 
tures. 

In  this  municipal  house  no  individual  receives 
any  profit  of  any  kind,  all  the  money  made  above 
expenses  going  into  an  operating  fund  for  its 
endowment,  with  the  aim  of  further  reducing  the 
already  moderate  admission  prices.  A  board  of 
five  men  appointed  by  the  mayor  runs  the  theater, 
as  well  as  another  small  moving  picture  house — 
the  only  other  one  in  the  town — which  is  also 
municipally  owned.  The  direct  control  is  in  the 
hands  of  a  salaried  manager  hired  by  the  board. 
The  long  continued  success  of  Red  Wing's  experi- 
ment seems  to  prove  that  community  ownership 
of  moving  picture  theaters  in  small  places  is  not 
only  feasible  but  a  possible  solution,  for  some  lo- 
calities at  least,  of  the  motion  picture  problem. 

North  Carolina  has  gone  into  the  showing  of 
moving  pictures  as  a  state  enterprise.  In  1917 
the  General  Assembly  of  the  state  decided  on  mov- 
ing picture  units  which  should  pass  from  one 
small  village  in  a  county  to  the  next,  giving  in 
each  about  two  shows  a  month,  and  making  the 
occasion  a  time  for  a  community  get-together  with 
the  opportunity  for  a  discussion,  after  the  pic- 
tures, of  community  problems  or  other  topics  of 
local  interest.  This  work,  which  has  grown  tre- 
mendously since  it  was  begun,  is  managed  by  a 
Director  under  the  State  Department  of  Education, 
and  one-third  of  the  cost  is  paid  by  the  state,  the 
rest  coming  from  the  admission  charge  of  ten 
cents.  Due  to  the  difficulty  of  renting  the  right 
kind  of  pictures,  North  Carolina  has  decided  to 
buy  its  own,  a  plan  which  has  been  financially 
possible  because  of  the  large  number  of  localities 
in  which  each  picture  is  shown. 

Those  in  touch  with  the  moving  picture  situa- 
tion as  a  whole  seem  to  feel  that  the  tide  has 
definitely  turned  against  the  sex  picture,  fea- 
tured as  such.  While  there  are  always  certain 
persons  and  certain  audiences  which  will  demand 
this  kind,  many  exhibitors  feel  that  in  the  long 
run  they  do  not  pay,  and  that  a  reputation  for 
showing  such  movies  will  ultimately  injure  a  the- 
ater. The  great  body  of  public  taste  is  fairly 
sound  and  clean.  Note,  for  example,  the  ten  best 
drawing  pictures  for  the  past  year  at  the  East- 
man Theater,  in  Rochester.  There  are  only  two, 
and  those  far  down  in  the  popularity  count,  which 
might  legitimately  be  questioned  for  even  the 
adolescent  audience.  The  two  top  liners  are  posi- 
tively juvenile: 

Harold  Lloyd  in  "Why  Worry?" 

lackie  Coogan  in  "A  Boy  of  Flanders." 

"The  Hunchback  of  Notre  Dame." 

"The  Eternal  City." 

Harold  Lloyd  in  "Girl  Shy." 

Lillian  Gish  in  "The  White  Sister." 

Corinne  Griffith  in  "Black  Oxen." 

Norma  Talmadge  in  "The  Song  of  Love." 

Ramon  ftovarro  in  "Scaramouche." 

Gloria  Swanson  in  "Bluebeard's  Eighth  Wife." 

For  those  who  are  concerned  about  the  in- 
fluence which  the  movies  are  having  on  young 
people,  the  message  which  all  these  facts  carry  is 
quite  plain ;  the  place  to  better  the  moving  pic- 
ture show  is  at  the  source,  by  our  own  intelligent 
cooperation  and  interest.  Boost  the  knowledge 
and  patronage  of  the   best  pictures  either  by  a

"The  Romantic  History  of  the  Motion  Pictures" 

(Those  who  have  followed  the  Film  Year  Book  will 
appreciate  that  the  number  of  installments  that  have  ap- 
peared in  several  preceding  issues  contain  but  a  trifling 
portion  of  a  most  interesting  document  now  appearing 
in  "Photoplay."  It  is  to  be  regretted  for  a  number  of 
reasons  that  the  excerpts  presented  must  be  so  brief.) 

Terry  Ramsay  began  the  January  installment  by  relating  of  the 
secret  code  which  Jeremiah  J.  Kennedy  used  in  connection  with 
the  General  Film  Co.  How  the  General  Film  Co.  swallowed  all  com- 
petition until  it  ran  up  against  William  Fox,  who  was  operating 
The  Greater  New  York  Film  Renting  Company  is  graphically  told. 
Fox  was  willing  to  sell  hut,  according  to  Ramsaye,  he  and  Kennedy 
could  not  get  together  on  the  price  and  this  resulted  in  long  and 
hitter  litigation. 

Ramsaye  points  out  that  George  Kleine  received  over  $346,000 
for  his  four  American  and  one  Canadian  Exchange,  and  Rowland  and 
Clarke  of  Pittsburgh,  who  had  exchanges  in  five  other  cities,  secured 
over  $250,000  from  General  Film.  Ramsaye  says  that  at  this  time 
(aliout  November  1,  1910)  there  were  9.480  motion  pictures  in  this 
country  of  which  the  Patents  Company  held  "dominion  over  5.281  and 
the  Independents  served  4,199."  In  July,  1912,  Ramsaye  discovers, 
there  were  12,869  theaters. 

The  interesting  analysis  of  the  old  O'Malley  &  Smith  Advertising 
Co.  which  preceded  the  American  Film  Mfg.  Co.  appears  in  this 
installment. 

In  February,  he  tells  of  how  Jules  E.  Brulatour  became  identified 
n  1911.  How  Tom  Cochrane  secured  Mary  Pickford  from  Laemmle's 
"Imp"  concern  called  the  Majestic  "at  the  amazing  figure  of  $275  per  week"  appears  and  how 
a  borrowed  diamond  ring  carried  Thomas  Ince  into  a  directorial  job  with  Charles  Kessell  is  delightfully 
related.  Kessel  and  Bauman,  their  experiences  with  the  101  Ranch  show  and  the  beginning  of  "Equity 
Production"  into  the  field,  is  related  by  Ramsaye,  inasmuch  as  this  established  a  new  price  of  15  cents 
a  foot  as  against  the  old  price  of  10  cents. 

The  developments  of  the  Keystone  comedies  by  Kessel  and  Bauman  which  carried  Mack  Sennett's 
name  to  fame  comes  with  this  installment,  and  Ramsaye  points  out  how  in  1911,  James  Cruze,  who  had 
hcen  in  vaudeville,  started  work  as  an  actor  in  Pathe's  New  Jersey  Studio.  "Several  years  elapsed  before 
Cruze  was  heard  from  aaain  *  *  *  he  turned  up  in  a  modest  way,  playing  bits  in  Los  Angeles  studios  at 
$5  a  day." 

Juliet  Shelby,  known  as  Mary  Miles  Minter,  made  her  appearance  in  January,  1912,  in  "The  Nurse,' 
and  Ramsaye  relates  how  the  Paramount  trade  mark  first  appeared  about  this  time. 

The  advent  of  Lewis  J.  Selznick.  a  former  Sixth  Avenue  jeweler,  into  the  picture  business  is  a 
most  interesting  part  of  the  March  installment.  Selznick  was  a  friend  of  Mark  Dintenfass  and  the 
latter  desired  to  sell  his  stock  to  the  Universal,  either  to  P.  A.  Powers  or  Carl  Laemmle.  The  result 
of  Selznick  s  effort  to  sell  this  stock  resulted  in  his  securing  a  desk  job  in  Universal  without  definite  title, 
which  he  quickly  changed  however,  appointing  himself  General  Manager.  Some  of  the  details  of  the 
memorable  battle  between  Powers  and  Laemmle  are  related ;  most  amazingly  one  incident  which 
relates  of  "Bill"  Oldknow  finding  record  books  of  the  corporation  at  his  feet  after  they  had  been  hurled 
through  the  window  of  the  office  at  1600  Broadway.  Oldknow  promptly  took  possession  of  the  records. 
According  to  Ramsaye,  Powers  in  May,  1920  "sold  to  the  Laemmle-Cochrane  interests  and  the  reports  of  the 
price  run  from  one  to  two  millions." 

How  the  old  Mutual  company  went  along,  how  Robert  Lieber  refused  the  presidency  and  how  Kuhn, 
Loeb  &  Co.  placed  Felix  Kahn  on  the  Board  of  directors,  is  told  in  this  issue 

There  is  an  interesting  incident  related  of  "Pop"  Lubin  looking  over  one  of  the  productions  of  his 
old  company  He  noticed  that  General  Grant  appeared  in  the  picture  life  like,  that  is  with  whiskers,  but  he 
snorted,  "I'll  tell  you  something.  General  Grant  can't  wear  his  whiskers  in  my  pictures — nobody  can, 
I  don't  care  if  it  would  be  even  Napoleon" 

The  advent  of  the  Gish  girls  into  the  industry  by  calling  upon  Mary  Pickford  and  later  meeting 
D.  W,  Griffith  is  interestingly  related,  particularly  in  that  at  that  time  Ramsaye  says  that  they  could  not 
be  distinguished  excepting  that  Dorothy  wore  a  pink  ribbon  and  Lillian  a  blue  ribbon  to  identify  them  in 
the  studio. 

Ramsaye  relates  how  Adolph  Zukor,  "an  obscure  little  man  of  no  special  importance,"  tried  to  meet 
officials  of  the  Patents  Company  and  waited  on  a  bench  over  three  hours  to  tell  them  of  his  idea  of  famous 
players  in  famous  plays — and  they  didn't  want  to  hear  it.  In  discussing  Zukor  at  this  early  period,  Ramsaye 
says,  "Morgan  means  money,  Gary  means  steel.  Lever  means  soap,  Rockefeller  means  oil.  Ford  means  motor 
cars  and  Zukor  means  motion  pictures     Twelve  years  did  that  for  the  man  on  the  bench." 

Following.  Ramsaye  relates  of  Zukor  arriving  in  America  from  Hungary  and  "prospering"  in  the 
fur  business  in  1903;  of  coming  to  New  York  td  salvage  a  loan  of  $3,000.  which  a  relative  had  sunk 
in  a  penny  arcade.  "Out  of  this  Zukor  had  evolved  into  a  tidy  success  in  the  amusement  business."  He 
became  president  of  the  Marcus  Loew  Enterprises,  "which  had  absorbed  most  of  his  (Zukor's)  amuse- 
ment interests  Zukor  had  nothing  to  do  which  led  him  to  purchase  the  famous  Sarah  Bernhardt 
picture  'Queen  Elizabeth'."  After  relating  at  length  Zukor's  moves  at  this  time,  Ramsaye  tells  of  Al 
Lichtman's  appearance  in  pictures,  and  Lichtman's  eventual  job  as  salesman  for  "Queen  Elizabeth" 
in  the  State  Rights  market.  "The  picture  sold  for  a  total  of  approximately  $80,000,  which  made  it 
handsomely  profitable." 

Ramsaye  relates  of  the  advent  of  the  American  Kinemacolor  Co.  and  of  Frank  E.  Woods  of  the 
Dramatic  Mirror  going  to  the  Coast  as  scenario  editor  for  Kinemacolor.  At  this  time  appears  the 
production  of  "Quo  Yadis"  imported  by  George  Kleine  from  Italy.  "  'Quo  Vadis'  was  too  big  a  subject 
for  the  motion  picture  theaters  of  the  day."  It  played  22  weeks  on  Broadway  at  $1  top.  The  profits  were 
tremendous.  '  The  success  of  this  production  led  to  theatrical  managers  of  importance  becoming  interested 
in  motion  picture  production.  Klaw  and  Erlanger  approached  D.  W.  Griffith  and  J.  J.  Kennedy  told 
('r™  ,  „e  t,"Tle  has  come  for  ,ne  Production  of  big  $50,000  pictures."  Famous-Plavers,  seeking 
Griffith,  offered  him  a  salary  of  $50,000  a  year  to  direct  for  that  company.  "Daniel  Frohman  was 
now  certain  that  his  associate  had  lost  his  reason.  The  Famous-Players  concern  did  not  have  fifty  thousand 
dollars  in  sight.  The  company  was  not  worth  that  much."  But  Griffith  relieved  the  situation  by 
rejecting  the  offer.

"October  1,  1913,  Griffith  left  Biograph  at  the  end  of  five  of  the  most  significant  years  of  motion 
picture  evolution,"  says  Ramsaye,  and  on  October  29,  Mutual  announced  D.  W.  Griffith  with  them. 
Ramsaye  says  that  eventually  the  five-reel  K.  &  E.  plays  were  cut  from  five  reels  to  three  and  offered 
along  with  the  little  two  and  three  reel  "features"  of  the  General  Film  Co.  for  what  they  might  bring 
in  the  run  of  the  trade. 

In  this  installment  Ramsaye  points  out  that  "the  close-up  was  born  with  the  motion  picture  in 
the  Edison  peep  show  days,"  thus  denying  the  tradition  that  D.  W.  Griffith  invented  the  close-up. 

The  advent  of  Clara  Kimball  Young  from  a  Salt  Lake  stock  company  to  appear  in  Vitagraph  pictures 
with  John  Bunny  is  mentioned  in  this  installment. 

In  May,  Ramsaye  continues  the  story  of  the  Fox  litigation  and  incidentally  gives  some  figures  of  the 
net  income  of  General  Film  Co.  He  says  that  at  that  time  it  had  "risen  to  the  handsome  figure  of 
approximately  $60,000."  Simple  divided  this  into  $6,000  to  J.  J.  Kennedy  and  $54,000  to  the  Film 
makeis,  $5,400  each.  How  Kennedy  stepped  out  on  May  12,  1912,  and  in  August  appeared  as  president 
with  Percy  L.  Waters  as  vice-president  of  the  Kinefograph  Company  is  told,  as  is  also  brought  out 
that  Al  Lichtman  was  chiefly  responsible  for  the  idea  of  using  star  name  and  starsi  in  pictures  .  He 
devised  the  three  classes,  "Ten  Class  A,  strictly  Famous  Players  in  Famous  plays  ;N  15  Class  B,  well 
known  picture  players  in  Famous  plays  and  15  Class  C  pictures  to  be  made  of  odds  and  ends  under  the 
name  of  Famous  Players  Stock  Company.  *  *  *  "Of  course,  Pickford  made  one  Class  A  appearance  when 
Famous  Players  acquired  'A  Good  Little  Devil'  with  the  whole  Belasco  cast  for  $15,000." 

How  Arthur  Friend  in  the  Spring  of  1913  was  enthusiastically  urging  his  acquaintances  to  go  into 
motion  pictures,  is  here  developed.  Among  his  friends  were  Jesse  Lasky  and  Lasky's  brother-in-law. 
Samuel  Goldfish  (now  Goldvvyn).  Ramsaye  tells  of  Lasky's  early  experiences  in  vaudeville,  of  losing  a 
fortune  in  "The  Follies  Bergere"  in  New  York  and  how  Lasky  met  Cecil  De  Mille  when  he  wanted  someone 
to  write  a  libretto  around  a  musical  theme.  The  operetta  succeeded.  How  De  Mille  and  Lasky  became 
business  associates  and  fast  friends  and  between  Arthur  Friend,  Lasky  and  Goldfish  the  Lasky  Feature 
Company  was  born,  how  De  Mille  and  Lasky  and  Dustin  Farnum  made  "The  Squaw  Man"  and  how 
Flagstaff,  Arizona,  lost  the  opportunity  of  becoming  what  Hollywood  is  today,  is  a  most  interesting  section 
of   this  installment. 

Another  interesting  point  is  how  Charles  Kessell  saw  the  skit  "A  Night  in  a  London;  Club"  in  which 
"a  small  man  with  big  pants  and  a  curious  gait"  attracted  his  attention.  Kessel  could  not  forget  the 
funny  pants  and  the  result  was  Charles  Chaplin's  engagement  in  motion  pictures  at  a  salary  of  $150 
a  week. 

The  June  installment  tells  how  a  newspaper  war  in  Chicago  between  the  Tribune  and  the  Hearst 
publications  caused  the  appearance  of  the  first  motion  picture  serial.  The  papers  were  fighting  for  cir- 
culation and  this  caused  all  the  trouble.  Ramsaye  tells  of  "The  Ladies'  World,"  a  McClure  monthly 
offering  a  $100  prize  offer  for  the  best  300  word  answer  to  "What  Happened  to  Mary,"  and  how 
from  this  eventuated  the  serial  of  "What  Happened  to  Mary."  It  was  this  idea  which  really  developed 
the  serial  from  the  Chicago  newspaper  battle. 

Kathlyn  Williams  was  the  star  of  the  "Adventures  of  Kathlyn,"  one  of  the  largest  and  better  picture 
serials  of  ten  years  ago. 

Ramsaye  tells  of  what  in  his  opinion  was  the  "first  of  the  great  film  press  agent's  stunts"  which  was 
developed  by  J.  C.  Cairns  with  regard  to  the  "Million  Dollar  Mystery."  Ramsaye  says  the  "Mystery"  cost 
about  $125,000  and  the  gross  receipts  were  nearly  $1,500,000. 

The  July  installment  tells  of  how  the  late  George  Loane  Tucker  with  Jack  Cohn  conceived  the  idea 
of  making  "Traffic  in  Souls,"  as  a  result  of  the  Parkhurst  Tenderloin  investigations.  Tucker  was 
working  for  Laemmle  but  Laemmle  had  no  interest  in  the  idea  especially  as  Tucker  wanted  to  spend 
"five  thousand  dollars  on  his  picture,"  that  was  enough  money  to  make  a  dozen  "program  pictures," 
but  Tucker,  Cohn  and  others  "took  time  in-between  shots  on  the  little  Imps"  and  in  the  end  the  picture 
was  shown  to  over  30,000  spectators  in  the  first  week.  Ramsaje  is  an  authority  for  the  statement,  "Its 
gross  receipts  totaled  approximately  $450,000."    It  had  cost  $5,700. 

Ramsaye  tells  of  how  "  a  vaste  wave"  of  "White  Slave  Pictures"  including  "The  House  of 
Bondage,"  "The  Lure,"  and  "Damaged  Goods"  swept  the  screen.  How  W.  W.  Hodkinson  developed 
from  a  telegraph  operator  into  the  most  important  position  in  the  industry  appears  at  this  time. 

Ramsaye  credits  Hodkinson  with  being  the  originator  of  the  Paramount  trade  mark  in  this  in- 
stallment. There  also  appears  at  this  time  a  report  of  the  difficulties  Griffith  was  having  in  the  release 
of  "The  Clansmen"  which  Thomas  Dixon,  the  author,  eventually  changed  to  "The  Birth  of  a  Nation." 
"  'The  Birth  of  a  Nation'  broke  all  manner  of  theater  'records  in  various  world  capitals, '  and  became,  as  it 
remains  today,  the  World's  greatest  motion  picture,  if  greatness  is  to  be  measured  by  fame. 

"The  Birth  of  a  Nation"  is  understood  to  have  cost  over  a  quarter  of  a  million.  Thei  public  has 
paid  15  million,  according  to  the  estimate  of  J.  P.  McCarty,  who  has  put  the  picture  on  the  screens  of 
the  world. 

The  August  installment  is  a  very  interesting  report  of  Pancho  Villa's  entry  into  pictures  under  the 
direction  of  Mutual.  Ramsaye  declares  that  Villa  "delayed  his  projected  attack  on  the  city  of  Orjinaga 
until  the  Mutual  could  bring  up  its  photgraphic  artillery." 

On  March  10.  1914,  there  terminated  a  local  battle  with  a  reported  settlement  of  $3,000,000  between 
the  Eastman  Kodak  Co.  and  the  heirs  of  the  Rev.  Hannibal  Goodwin  for  a  patent  on  a  camera. 

The  opening  of  the  Strand  Theater  on  Broadway,  New  York,  on  April  11,  1914  together  with  a 
brief  sketch  nf  the  career  of  Samuel  L.  Rothafel  appears  in  this  installment.  An  interesting  notation  here 
is  that  "Roxy"  came  from  Pennsylvania  to  NNew  York  to  see  Marcus  Loew,  but  because  he  overhead 
an  argument  he  rushed  out  of  Loew's  office. 

The  Strand  opened  with  "The  Spoilers."  Ramsaye  points  out  "that  the  rising  significance  of  the 
motion  picture  theater"  developed  a  recognition  fmong  exhibitors  and  that  in  Chicago,  Miss  Audrey 
Alspaugh  writing  in  the  Tribune,  under  the  name  of  Kitty  Kelly,  "became  an  actual  critic  of  the  pictures,  and 
one  of  the  first  acute  students" 

Ramsaye  declares  that  the  Tribune  motion  picture  department  was  followed  all  over  the  country 
and  within  two  years  there  were  more  than  one  hundred  motion  picture  papers,  and  in  1924  "nearly  400." 

How  the  Great  War  of  1914  led  to  the  production  of  certain  "war"  films,  makes  an  interesting  section 
of  this  installment. 

The  advent  of  Marie  Dressier  and  her  production  of  "Tillie's  Punctured  Romance"  which  led  to  the 
development  of  big  money  to  Charlie  Chaplin  opens  the  September  installment.  How  Chaplin's  price  went 
up  to  $1,250  per  week  and  how  Chaplin  met  Edna  Purviance  is  interestingly  told.  "Tillie's  Punctured 
Romance"  was  distributed  by  Alco  Company  formed  August  25,  1914.  "The  plans  of  the  Alco  concern 
was  to  tie-up  with  the  leading  exhibitors  in  key  cities  all  over  the  United  States."  It  got  into  more 
trouble  than  theaters  in  the  twelve  weeks  of  is  active  existence.  Authorities  differ  concerning  the  total 
earnings  of  "Tillies  Punctured  Romance,"  "but  the  guesses  range  from  three  quarters  of  a  million 
upwards." 

Mary  Pickford  was  at  this  time  getting  $1,000  a  week  from  Zukor.  She  was  offered  $4,000  a  week 
by  the  North  American  Film  Corp.  (Mutual)  to  appear  in  a  60  reel  serial  "A  Diamond  from  the  Sky." 
On  November  28th,  Zukor  announced  a  contract  with  Miss  Pickford  at  a  salary  of  $2,000  a  year.

Motion  Pictures  and  Finance 


In  a  series  of  five  articles,  written  for  the  Wall 
Street  T  ournal,  L.  W.~  Boynton,  formerly  publisher 
of  the  Exhibitors  Trade  Review,  has  contributed 
what  may  be  appraised  as  a  comprehensive  course 
on  all  financial  aspects  and  ramifications  of  the 
motion  picture  industry.    Mr.  Boynton  says: 

*  *  *  The  industry  is  fundamental  because  it 
meets  a  human  need,  and  meets  it  at  a  price 
within  the  reach  of  all.  The  vast  majority  of 
picture  theaters  in  America  charge  less  than  50 
cents  for  their  best  seats,  the  average  being  nearer 
25  cents. 

The  motion  picture  appeals  to  the  masses.  It 
commands  numbers,  and  commands  them  in  a 
greater  degree  than  any  other  form  of  entertain- 
ment. The  average  weekly  attendance  at  film 
houses  in  this  country  is  50.000,000.  In  addition 
there  is  the  rest  of  the  world  to  draw  upon,  and 
the  American  industry  is  drawing  upon  it  with 
increasing  strength.  *  *  * 

*  *  *  In  Great  Britain  80%  of  the  films  shown 
are  American.  The  principal  American  distribu- 
tors have  branches  in  all  the  chief  cities  of  the 
continent.  *  *  * 

*  *  *  A  leading  picture  corporation  now  has 
a  gross  income  of  a  million  dollars  a  week.  That  is 
what  it  gets  from  renting  its  pictures  to  the  theaters 
of  the  country,  plus  its  forergn  business,  which 
is  about  25%   of  the  total. 

The  best  obtainable  statistics  show  the  following 
facts  about  the  industry  in  the  United  States  : 

The  investment  is  $1,500,000,000. 

Total  number  persons  permanently  employed, 
in  all  its  branches.  300,000. 

Average  number  of  feature  pictures  produced 
yearly,  700. 

Average  weekly  attendance  at  picture  theaters. 
50.000.000. 

Admissions  paid  annually  total  about  $500  - 
000,000. 

Salaries  and  wages  paid  at  the  studios,  $75,- 
0C0.000  annually. 

The  theaters  running  from  six  to  seven  days  a 
week,  9,000. 

Theaters  running  four  to  five  days  a  week. 
1,500. 

Theaters  running  one  to  three  days  a  week, 
4,500. 

Producers  and  exhibitors  spend  $5,000,000  a 
year  in  newspaper  and  magazine  advertising 

Producers  spend  $7,000,000  annually  for  photos, 
cuts,  slides,  and  other  accessories;  lithographs, 
printing  and  engraving. 

The  big  growth  in  the  foreign  market  is  shown 
in  the  government  export  figures.  In  1913,  32,- 
000. 000  lineal  feet  of  film  were  exported  In 
1923,  200,000,000  feet  went  into  foreign  trade. 
The  percentage  of  American  films  used  abroad 
is  between  eighty  and  ninety. 

On  the  other  hand,  only  425  foreign  pictures 
were  sent  here  for  sale  in  1922.  Of  these  only 
six  were  sold  and  exhibited." 


Article  2,  dealing  with  the  adoption  of  the  bud- 
get system  and  the  elimination  of  waste  by  the 
cost  estimate  systems,  disclose  the  following  as 
the  more  or  less  salient  points  on  this  subject  of 
the  series : 

*  *  *  "The  picture  is  made  in  the  studio  at  a 
cost  of  anywhere  from  $50,000  to  over  a  million. 
The  average  is  probably  between  $150,000  and 
$200,000.  *  *  * 

*  *  An  example  of  the  new  business  spirit  in 
the  industry  is  shown  by  a  bonus  plan  which  is 
shortly  to  be  put  into  effect  by  one  of  the  largest 
producing  companies.  Under  this  system  the  di- 
rector of  a  picture  will  be  given  a  definite  budget 
to  work  upon,  and  he  will  be  given  a  percentage 
of  the  saving  from  the  production  estimate.  In 
other  words,  he  will  be  made  an  actual  partner  in 
the  making  of  the  film,  and  will  be  interested  in 
eliminating  avoidable  wastage. 

The  budget  plan  is  being  adopted  by  all  the 
successful  companies.  They  know  in  advance, 
with  reasonable  accuracy,  what  the  cost  will  be, 
and  they  can  therefore  to  a  great  degree  control 


this  very  important  factor  in  the  picture's  later 
career.  *  *  * 

*  *  *  Every  picture  is  an  individual  creation, 
but  production  on  the  whole  is  subject  to  the  law 
of  averages.  The  large  production-distributien 
companies — Associated,  First  National,  Famous 
Players-Lasky,  Fox,  Metro-Goldwyn,  Universal — 
do  not  put  all  their  eggs  in  one  basket.  They 
produce  and  distribute  a  sufficient  number  of  pic- 
tures a  year,  so  that  the  lower  values  of  the  less 
successful  are  absorbed  by  those  which  hit  the 
mark  with  the  public.  *  *  * 

Another  well-known  law  which  works  out  in  the 
film  industry  is  that  of  supply  and  demand  in  its 
application  to  the  salaries  of  stars  and  directors. 
With  the  business  methods  that  have  been  intro- 
duced in  production,  of  which  players'  salaries  are 
an  important  item,  of  course,  in  negative  cost, 
has  come  the  stabilizing  of  the  money  paid  to 
the  stars. 

They  are  "made"  in  the  last  analysis,  by  the 
public,  not  by  the  producer.  If  the  public  wants 
them,  they  are  a  tremendous  asset  commercially, 
and  they  are  therefore  entitled  to  receive,  and  do 
receive,  large  salaries.  The  salary  of  the  star  is 
distributed  over  the  millions  of  theater  patrons 
who  want  to  see  that  actor  or  actress." 

Article  3  is  devoted  to  distribution  and  a  digest 
of  the  key  city  system.    Here  we  have: 

*  *  *  "For  first  exhibition  and  distribution  of 
their  pictures  all  of  the  leading  companies  have 
adopted  what  is  known  as  the  key  center  plan.  In 
the  United  States  there  are  31  key  centers,  each 
a  key  to  its  own  territory.  They  are :  New  York, 
Hoston,  Philadelphia,  Washington.  Atlanta,  New 
Orleans,  Dallas,  Oklahoma  City,  St.  Louis,  Kan- 
sas City,  Chicago,  Minneapolis,  Omaha,  Denver, 
Salt  Take  City,  Seattle,  Portland,  San  Francisco, 
Los  Angeles,  Indianapolis,  Cleveland,  Pittsburgh, 
Cincinnati,  Louisville,  Des  Moines,  Buffalo,  De- 
troit, Milwaukee,  Newark,  New  Haven  and  Char- 
lotte. *  *  * 

*  *  *  In  each  key  city  there  are  recognized 
first  class,  first  run  houses,  and  into  these,  accord- 
ing to  well-defined  practice,  the  picture  goes  for 
its  initial  showing.  It  is  liberally  exploited.  Films 
like  "The  Birth  of  a  Nation,''  "Robin  Hood," 
"The  Hunchback  of  Notre  Dame,"  "The  Four 
Horsemen  of  the  Apocalypse"  and  "The  Covered 
Wagon"  are  billed  in  circus  fashion  and  draw 
patronage  from  the  whole  territory  of  the  key 
city.  The  engagement  may  run  months,  if  public 
response  warrants.   »  *  * 

*  *  *  One  hundred  positives,  on  the  average, 
are  made  for  each  picture  for  the  whole  country. 

Now  a  picture  which  has  cost  $100,000  often 
brings  in  twice  as  much  as  one  costing  $200,000. 
The  sales  departments  make  a  careful  study  of 
the  picture  and  then  fix  what  is  called  its  "ex- 
hibition value,"  that  is,  the  amount  it  is  expected 
to  produce  in  rentals  from  the  theaters. 

When  the  picture  is  released,  the  cost  is  de- 
preciated monthly — 50%  in  ninety  days,  88%  in 
a  year  and  100%  in  two  years.  The  ratio  of  de- 
preciation corresponds  to  the  expected  returns 
from  rentals,  but  it  is  made  irrespective  of  these 
returns.  *  *  * 

*  *  *  In  the  vaults  of  every  representative 
picture  company  are  millions  of  dollars  in  residual 
value  in  negatives.  The  story  rights  alone  repre- 
sent an  important  asset.  Many  of  the  old  pic- 
tures are  being  remade,  greatly  improved  in  tech- 
nique and  acting.  The  residual  value  in  picture 
stories,  as  well  as  negatives,  runs  high. 

The  distribution  of  all  motion  pictures  in  1923 
cost  about  $40,000,000,  about  30%  of  the  total 
revenue  received  by  the  distributors  from  rentals. 

The  growth  of  elaborate  picture  theaters  in  all 
the  important  cities  is  emphatic  testimony  to  the 
tremendous  fund  of  public  good-will  upon  which 
the  industry  draws.  The  Capitol  Theater  in 
New  York,  seating  5.300  and  devoted  entirely  to 
the  presentation  of  pictures,  is  said  to  be  the 
largest  entertainment  palace  of  the  world.    A  new

from  $500,000  to  a  million  or  more  in  nearly  every 
large  city. 

More  than  $100,000,000  was  spent  in  1923  on

tects' estimates,  that  amount  will  be  largely  in- 
creased in  1924."

Article  5  deals  for  the  most  part  with  the  re- 
lationship of  the  Will  Hays  organization  to  the 
film  industry.  Here,  the  author  shows  how  the 
public  is  made  a  partner,  starting  with  this 
thought : 

"*  *  *  The  influence  of  the  public  on  the 
screen  and  the  influence  of  the  screen  on  the 
public  ought,  plainly,  therefore,  to  be  made  to 
dovetail — as  a  matter  of  business  organization  and 
for  the  specific  purpose  of  cementing  good-will. 

The  dovetailing  of  the  two  spheres  of  influence 
provides  the  final  step  in  guaranteeing  stability. 
It  is  a  big  job  of  organization,  and  it  is  being 
done. 

On  March  6,  1922,  the  leading  producers  and 
distributors  called  Will  H.  Hays  into  the  industry 
to  undertake  this  job  of  organization  and  to  gal 
vanize  the  relations  of  the  industry  with  the 
public.  *  *  * 

*  *  *  The  Hays  organization  started  with  nine 
producing  and  distributing  companies.  It  now 
has  twenty-two  in  its  membership,  and  these  repre- 
sent 90%  of  the  production  and  distribution  of 
motion  pictures  in  America. 

It  has  definitely  mobilized  goodwill  on  the  part 
of  the  public." 


THE  LIFE  OF  A  PICTURE 

What  is  the  life  of  a  picture?  This  question 
is  discussed  from  the  accounting  viewpoint,  by 
R.  J.  Watterston,  C.  P.  A.,  in  a  recent  issue 
of  "The  Certified  Public  Accountant".    He  writes: 

"It  will  be  seen  from  the  following  table  that 
the  estimated  life  of  a  picture  is  eighteen  months, 
and  it  is  assumed  that  80%  of  its  revenue  will 
be  derived  from  domestic  territory,  or  the  United 
States  and  Canada,  and  20%  from  foreign  terri- 
tory. 

"From  the  domestic  revenue,  the  following  per- 
centages of  total  negative,  and  positive  cost  are 
deducted  monthly.  In  the  case  of  the  negative 
cost,  the  total  for  this  purpose  represents  80% 
of  the  total  cost  of  the  negative  as  the  remaining 
20%  is  allocated  to  sales  in  foriegn  territories. 
The  positive  cost,  however,  represents  100'%  of 
the  cost  as  positive  prints  are  not  supplied  to  for- 
eign countries.

"The  above  percentages  are  arrived  at  by  taking 
the  monthly  earnings  of  a  large  number  of 
representative  pictures  and  calculating  the  ratio 
which  the  average  revenue  for  each  month  bears 
to  the  total  revenue." 


A    BANKING  ENDORSEMENT 
OF  THE  INDUSTRY 

Under  the  heading  of  "The  Stabilization  of  the 
Motion  Picture  Industry,"  the  National  Bank  of 
Commerce,  in  the  September  issue  of  its  official 
organ,  The  Commerce  Monthly,  writes: 

The  motion  picture  industry  is  slowly  getting 
out  of  the  class  of  a  game  and  more  in  the 
class  of  a  business.  On  this  point  the  public 
and  the  industry  are  in  agreement.  The  evolution 
is  not  yet  complete,  but  to  its  progress  the  events 
of  1922  and  1923  have  contributed  notably.  They 
amount  to  an  admission  of  the  fact  that  the  in- 
dustry cannot  realize  its  greatest  possibilities  under 
the  former  spectacular  financial  methods  and  that 
it  must  inevitably  conform  to  normal  standards 
and  requirements  of  business.  A  settling-down 
process  has  been  taking  place  during  the  past 
two  years,  resulting  in  the  establishment  of  three 
fundamental  principles:  first,  (hat  production  costs 
cannot  be  enlarged  indefinitely  without  straining 
the  financial  basis  of  production  to  the  break- 
ing point;  second,  that  sound  financial  methods 
are  indispensable  for  the  progress  of  the  indus- 
try; and  third,  that  public  approval  and  good 
will  are  its  most  valuable  assets. 

*  *  *  Activity  in  picture  production  at  present 
is  devoted  in  overwhelming  proportion  to  amuse- 
ment. *  *  * 

*  *  *  Industries  are  gradually  learning  to  use 
motion  pictures  in  a  great  variety  of  ways,  such 
as  sales  demonstration,  instruction  of  employes 
and  building  up  of  good  will.  A  railroad  in  the 
Middle  West  reduced  its  outlay  for  loss  and 
damages  by  $1,000,000  in  less  than  a  year  through 
visual  instruction  to  its  employes  in  proper  meth- 
ods of  freight  handling.  A  number  of  the  largest 
manufacturers    in    the    United    States    have  their 

own  film  departments  and  distribution  sytems. 
#  *  * 

The  motion  picture  is  for  all  practical  purposes 
an  amusement  enterprise,  yet  it  has  attracted  a 
capital  investment  as  large  as  that  of  many  great 
staple  producers.  The  industry's  best  estimates 
of  its  position  include  the  following  figures : 

1922-23 

Approximate  cost  of  pictures  pro- 
duced   annually    $200,000,000 

Taxable  motion  picture  property  in 

the  United  States    720,000,000

may  now  be  found  in  the  industry  of  organizations 
with  capital  ranging  as  high  as  25  to  50  million 
dollars.  *  *  * 

*  *  *  A  production  budget  for  1923-24,  com- 
piled by  a  film  publication,  showed  that  twenty- 
three  of  the  larger  companies  planned  a  total 
outlay  in  that  year  of  more  than  $100,000,000. 
Of  these  companies  two  planned  to  spend  over 
$10,000,000  each  in  that  season,  six  had  in  view 
an  outlay  of  $5,000,000  to  $8,000,000  each  and 
the  remaining  were  to  spend  from  $1,000,000  to 
$4,000,000.  This  enumeration  does  not  cover  the 
independent  field. 

*  *  *  Losses  are  particularly  heavy  in  the  in- 
dependent branch  of  production,  not  only  because 
of  the  inexperience  of  new  producers  who  try  out 
pet  projects  but  because  of  defects  in  distribu- 
tion. It  is  well  known  that  there  is  a  multi- 
tude of  small  independent  producers  who  are  led 
to  sink  $100,000  or  more  in  single  productions, 
generally  a  total  loss  because  of  their  lack  of 
contact  with  the  distributing  market  and  their 
ignorance  of  the  prevailing  trend  of  popular  taste 
in  moving  pictures. 

Only  gradually  is  the  motion  picture  business 
gaining  recognition  as  a  proper  field  for  the 
placing  of  bank  funds.  Until  the  past  year  or 
two  few  companies  could  secure  loans.  A  wes- 
tern bank  in  close  touch  with  the  industry  stated 
in  1921  that  only  a  few  out  of  nearly  a  hun- 
dred producing  concerns  in  its  district  were  safe 
risks  for  bank  loans.  At  present  this  condition 
is  changing.  Bank  officers  have  been  invited  to 
join  the  directorates  of  larger  film  companies 
and  the  modifying  of  speculative  features  in  the 
industry  is  resulting  in  a  less  distrustful  attitude 
on  the  part  of  the  banks.  *  *  * 

*  *  *  Costs  of  production  in  this  industry,  as 
in  others,  have  risen  rapidly  in  the  past  few 
years.  Once  it  was  possible  to  produce  an  ac- 
ceptable "feature"  picture  for  a  few  thousand  dol- 
lars. Now  the  average  is  between  $100,000  and 
$200,000.  "Superpictures"  which  have  been  ex- 
ploited in  very  recent  years  cost  from  $700,000 
to  $1,500,000.  Cost  does  not  determine  profits, 
however.  Producers  have  learned  that  it  is  pos- 
sible to  earn  as  large  a  profit  on  a  good  $100,- 
000   picture   as   on   one   which   costs  $200,000. 

*  *  *  A  million-dollar  picture  may  take  from 
one  to  two  years  to  bring  back  its  cost.  In  ex- 
ceptional cases,  a  picture  may  run  for  several 
years. 

*  *  *  In  the  short  life  of  the  motion  picture 
industry,  American  producers  have  reaped  a  gol- 
den harvest.  Of  a  possible  90,000  picture  the- 
aters in  the  world,  15,000  are  in  the  United 
States  with  a  weekly  attendance  now  estimated 
at  50,000,000  and  weekly  admissions  of  $10,- 
000,000.   *   *  * 

*  *  *  Foreign  business  of  the  leading  Ameri- 
can companies,  some  of  which  have  several 
foreign  branches,  brings  in  a  maximum  of  15  to 
25  per  cent,  of  their  total  receipts.  Most  oi 
the  foreign  business  is  profit,  expenses  being 
covered  by  sales  in  the  domestic  market.  »  •  • 

*  *  *  Until  1923  the  motion  picture  industry 


was  the  spoiled  child  among  American  industries, 
spending  as  lavishly  as  it  pleased  on  more  and 
more  costly  productions,  knowing  that  the  gen- 
erous public  would  foot  the  bills.  This  con- 
dition was  not  permanent.  Judging  from  the  vol- 
ume of  collections  under  the  Federal  tax  on 
admissions  to  all  classes  of  entertainments,  the 
12  months  ending  June  30,  1921,  established  the 
record  for  expenditure  on  admissions  to  enter- 
tainments. Undoubtedly,  admissions  to  motion 
picture  theaters  formed  the  larger  share  of  this 
total.  *  *  * 

*  *  *  Serious  efforts  are  under  way  to  prevent 
the  marketing  of  pictures  which  have  no  "box 
office  value"  and  to  assure  the  independent  pro- 
ducer of  good  pictures  that  he  will  receive  the 
returns  which  are  due  him.  A  movement  for 
the  organization  of  smaller  independent  interests 
has  been  launched.  From  now  on  moving  pictures 
will  be  a  less  spectacular  business  but  a  safer 
one. 


STANDARDS  FOR  MEASURING  BANK 
LOANS 

John  E.  Barber,  vice  president  of  the  First  Na- 
tional Bank  of  Los  Angeles,  who  has  contributed 
many  important  papers  on  picture  financing  to 
various  publications,  in  an  article  in  "Commerce 
Journal''  issued  by  the  School  of  Commerce  and 
Business  Administration  of  the  University  of 
Southern  California,  declared: 

"There  are  certain  fundamental  standards  for 
measuring  motion  picture  loans,  of  which  the  fol- 
lowing are  the  most  important: 

"1.  Intergrity,  experience  and  business  (not 
merely  artistic)  ability  of  producer  and  his  previous 
record  for  box  office  success. 

"2.  The  director,  his  temperament,  his  success 
at  keeping  within  time  and  cost  schedule  and  previ- 
ous experience  with  successful  pictures. 

"3.  Story  and  box  office  appeal.  Adaptability  of 
the  cast. 

.  "4.  Distribution.  Capabilities.  How  well  es- 
tablished. What  guarantees  of  cost  advances?  Any 
objectionable  screen  examination  or  rejection 
clauses  ? 

"5.  Study  cost  of  production  and  classification 
of  costs. 

"If  a  picture  measures  up  to  these  standards 
and  it  is  decided  to  make  the  loan,  the  following 
steps  should  be  taken,  most  important,  perhaps, 
among  which  are  those  relating  to  the  legal  precau- 
tions  protecting   the   bank's  advances: 

"1.  Assignment  to  the  bank  of  all  right  and 
interest  to  the  negatives,  both  foreign  and  domestic, 
and  also  the  prints.  Record  these  assignments  as 
chattel  mortgages  and  have  them  acknowledged  by 
distributor. 

"2.  Distributor  should  agree  to  direct  repayment 
to  the  bank  of  the  producer's  full  share  of  the 

gross. 

"3.  Assignment  of  the  story  rights  and  also  all 
contracts   between   producer   and  stars. 

"4.  Copyright  protection  and  recordation  at  Wash 

ington. 

"5.  Insurance,  not  only  of  stars,  producer,  direc- 
tor and  essential  actors,  but  for  negatives  and 
prints  as  well. 

"6.  Actual  physical  possession  of  the  negatives

ALUMINUM  FILM 

Paris — Metro-Goldwyn  in  December  secured  an 
option  for  a  large  interest  in  an  invention  which 
may  revolutionize  the  raw  stock  market.  The 
patent,  held  by  Michael  Werthen,  calls  for  raw 
stock  to  be  made  on  an  aluminum  base  which  is 
said  to  possess  certain  unusual  qualities,  such  as 
being  impervious  to  wear. 

It  is  said  that  the  patent  needs  development 
before  it  is  in  readiness  for  practical  use.

Problems  of  An  Exhibitor 


(A  most  interesting  survey  was  made 
W.  Purkett,  general  manager,  and  reporte 

Says  the  News:  The  survey,  because  of  its 
thoroughness  and  the  case  with  which  it  was 
conducted,  is  probably  unique  in  the  history  of 
the  industry.  Questionnaires  were  filled  out  by 
a  large  number  of  patrons  of  the  Kinema,  a  repre 
sentative  house  catering  to  a  high-class  fan  audi- 
ence. In  addition,  personal  investigators  were 
sent  out.  They  interviewed  nearly  1,600  people, 
representing  all  classes.  To  make  the  survey  com- 
plete, a  special  investigation  was  made  among 
foreigners  who  do  not  speak  English. 

These  three  separate  investigations  covered 
questions  of  the  utmost  importance  to  exhibitor 
and  producer  alike.  The  compilation  of  results 
was  made  by  Reaumont  &  Hohman,  an  advertis- 
ing agency  of  Fresno. 

1.  What  do  you  like  best  in  pictures? 
(Note:  This  question  was  covered  by  both  ques- 
tionnaires.) 

Kinema   Questionnaires  results: 

Mystery    22.2% 

Melodrama    21.1% 

Comedy    18.5% 

Historical    15.1% 

Sex    drama    11.9% 

Costume    10.1% 

General  Questionnaire  results : 

Melodrama    48.6% 

Historical    22.4% 

Costume    22.0% 

Comedy    6.8% 

It  is  necessary  to  give  the  results  individually 
on  this  question  since  sex  drama  and  mystery 
were  not  included  in  the  General  Questionnaire. 
It  was  impossible  to  get  answers  in  regard  to 
the  sex  drama  when  taken  by  personal  investi- 
gators, although  this  question  was  readily  answered 
when   the  questionnaire  was   filled  out  privately. 

2.  Do  you  like  scenics? 
(Average  Results.) 

Yes    81.5% 

No    19.3% 

The  results  on  this  point  cut  the  unquestionable 
popularity  of  scenics  on  a  motion  picture  pro- 
gram. 

The  results  on  the  General  Questionnaire  are 
a  little  higher  in  favor  of  scenics  than  on  the 
Kinema  Questionnaire.  The  percentages  were  as 
follows : 

General — 

Yes   82.4% 

Kinema — 

Yes    74.5% 

3.  On  what  days  of  the  week  do  you  attend  the 
.motion  picture  theaters?  6

Thursday    2.1% 

Friday    6.9% 

Saturday    23.4% 

No  preference    42.0% 

The  Kinema  Questionnaire  results  show  the 
habits  of  its  own  patrons,  while  the  General  Ques- 
tionnaire results  bring  out  the  habits  of  all  the- 
ater (vaudeville,  motion  picture  and  road  show) 
patrons.

by  the  Kinema  Theater,  Fresno,  Cal.,  Frank 
d  in  the  Motion  Picture  News,  of  Oct.  18.) 

5.  Do  you  go  to  the  show  because  of  the  star 
or  because  of  the  picture? 

Picture    55.5% 

Star    44.5% 

These  figures  give  an  insight  into  relative  "pull- 
ing power"  of  the  star  and  the  picture. 

6.  What  creates  your  interest  in  motion  pictures? 

Stories    27.8% 

Stars    23.1% 

Entertainment    12.9% 

Acting    12.4% 

Advertisements    9.6% 

Education    7.4% 

Producers    2.8% 

Scenery    1.7% 

Life    1.7% 

Features    1.2% 

Romance   6% 

This  questions  brings  out  what  the  public  con- 
siders important  about  the  picture  and  points 
out  the  advertising  appeals  as  applied  to  the  pic- 
ture itself. 

It  is  interesting  to  note  that  about  the  same 
relative  importance  is  placed  on  stars  and  stories 
(pictures)  as  was  done  in  question  5. 

It  also  points  out  the  small  role  the  producer 
plays  in  actually  filling  the  house. 

7.  Do  you  read  the  motion  picture  magazines? 

Yes    54% 

No    46% 

This  question,  in  a  measure,  shows  the  actual 
proportion  of  motion  picture  enthusiasts  (movie 
fans)  of  the  Kinema's  clientele.  It  also  reveals 
that  more  women  read  this  class  of  magazines 
than  do  men. 

Women    57.4% 

Men    39.3% 

7a.    Name  of  publication?

A.  Brewster    1.2% 

Hollywood   6% 

Movie  World   6% 

Photo  Era  6% 

Picture  Play  Review   6% 

Pictures  that  have  been  exploited  in  the  first 
three  magazines  should  be  considered  as  having 
had  good  publicity  and  advertising  given  them. 

8.  Do  you  follow  news  items  in  papers  about  the 
attractions  at  the  theaters? 

(Kinema  Questionnaire) 

Yes    98.5% 

No   1-5% 

This  conclusively  shows  the  importance  of  pub- 
licity as  a  means  of  reaching  the  motion-picture 
public. 

9.  Do  you  discuss  pictures  with  your  friends? 
(Note:      This    question   was   covered   by  both 

questionnaires.) 

Kinema  Questionnaire  results : 

Yes    97,8% 

No    2.2% 

General  Questionnaire  results  : 

Yes    76.5% 

No    23.5% 

These  results  should  be  of  utmost  importance 
to  newspapers  editors  because  it  shows  the  wide- 
spread interest  in  motion  pictures. 

10.  Are   there   some   special   features   about  the 
Kinema  that  appeal  to  you?

Average   results  :

No   46.6% 

This  question  being  covered  by  both  question- 
naires gives  very  accurate  check  upon  the  public's 
opinion  in  regard  to  screen  advertising.  It  was 
noted  that  when  people  did  object,  they  were 
very  strong  in  their  denunciation. 

16.  How  often  do  you  go  to  the  show?

Only  special  attractions    5.5% 

This  question  shows  the  comparative  attendance 
of  the  public  as  a  whole  and  the  average  patron 
of  the  Kinema. 

17.  Do  you  know  that  the  producer  determines 
the  admission  price  of  the  pictures,  and  not 
the  local  theaters?

No    68.0% 

(General  Questionnaire) 

Yes    15.5%

theaters.

ductions) if  a  raise  in  price  is  necessary?

vaudeville  or  road  shows? 

(General  Questionnaire) 

Motion  Pictures   73.5% 

Vaudeville    2.0% 

Road  Shows    24.5% 

This  shows  the  remarkable  popularity  the  mo- 
tion picture  has  gained  in  its  short  life  time. 
Observations  made  by  Investigators 

A.  In  some  instances  a  storm  of  disapproval 
of  motion  pictures  was  received  by  the  investi- 
gators. This  criticism  was  confined  entirely  to 
older  people  and  based  upon  religious  beliefs  that 
motion  pictures  were  destroying  the  moral  fibre 
of  the  younger  generation. 

B.  There  seemed  to  be  more  willingness  on 
the  part  of  the  public  to  give  information  about 
the  theatrical  business  than  ordinarily  is  experi- 
enced in  other  survey  work. 

C.  The  impression  was  gained  by  the  investi- 
gators that  women  as  a  whole  are  more  intimately 
acquainted  with  the  personnel  of  the  motion  pic- 
ture business  than  men. 

Results  from  Across  Tracks  Questionnaire 
This  investigation  was  made  separately  amongst 
the  German  and  Russian  classes.  Thirty  ques- 
tionnaires were  very  carefully  filled  out  under  the 
supervision  of  a  competent  German  and  Russian 
interpreter. 

Probably  the  most  outstanding  fact  obtained 
from  this  section  is  that  the  Liberty  Theater  draws 
heavily  on  this  section  for  its  patrons. 

1.  How  often  do  you  attend  the  theater? 

1  time  per  week    50.0% 

2  times  per  week    30.0%

price  of  the  pictures  and  not  the  local  theaters? 
Yes   16.6% 

No    83.4% 

6.  Do  you  discuss  motion  pictures  with  your 
friends? 

Yes   100% 

This  question  conclusively  shows  that,  regardless 
of  race  or  nationality,  information  about  motion 
pictures  is  almost  perfect  news. 

7.  Which  do  you  prefer? 

Melodrama    18.4%

8.  Do  you  like  scenics? 

Yes    90.0% 

No    10.0% 

Commenting  on  the  survey,  Q.  E.  D.,  in  The 
Evening  Sun,  Baltimore,  said : 

Why  doesn't  some  Baltimore  picture  house  cir- 
culate such  a  questionnaire  We'll  think  up  the 
questions  if  they  will  print  the  questionnaires, 
circulate  them,  tabulate  the  results,  etc.  We  al- 
ways were  one  for  taking  the  heaviest  work  on 
our  own  shoulders.

WALLACE  WORSLEY 

DIRECTOR 


"Up  to  the  time  we  saw  'The  Hunchback'  we  were  under 
the  impression  that  some  foreign  directors  could  teach  us 
something  about  handling  mobs  and  big  scenes;  but  we've 
changed  our  minds,  thanks  to  Wallace  Worsley,  who  di- 
rected 'The  Hunchback.'  He  has  done  a  noble  bit  of  work 
and  one  well  deserving  a  special  niche  in  the  Hall  of 
Fame.  From  now  on  Worsley  is  on  our  list  of  wonder 
men  of  the  screen." 

—DON  ALLEN 

in  the  N.  Y.  Evening  World 
September  4,  1923. 


"Turning  our  attention  to  the  flesh  and  blood  elements  in 
the  ensemble,  we  find  that  two  names  stand  out  boldly — 
Wallace  Worsley  and  Lon  Chaney.  Mr.  Worsley  directed 
the  picture  and  in  doing  so  he  climbed  definitely  into  the 
select  company  of  the  movie  great.  He  has  made  a  mag- 
nificent job  of  this  picture,  displaying  a  positive  genius 
for  composition,  for  mass  effect  and  for  the  development 
of  drama  by  purely  pictorial  methods." 

—ROBERT  E.  SHERWOOD 
in  the  N.  Y.  Herald 
September  3,  1923.

Reviews  from 
LONDON 

Daily  Chronicle 

Brothers  who  made  world's  greatest  film.    It  is  the  greatest  film 
ever  made. 
Daily  News 

Romance  of  Abraham  Lincoln.    A  great  American  film. 
Sunday  Express 

America  has  sent  us  not  only  her  greatest  patriotic  film  but  I 
think  the  greatest  film  ever  produced.  It  has  taken  us  twenty-five 
years  to  get  it  but  we  have  got  it. 

NEW  YORK 

New  York  Times 

Will  live  longer  than  any  other  motion  picture. 
New  York  Tribune 

Thrilling — beautiful  production,  inspiring,  greatest  film  ever  seen. 
Morning  Telegraph 

A  triumph — will  be  remembered  long  after  contemporary  pictures 
are  forgotten. 

CHICAGO 

Exhibitors  Herald 

Great  in  entertainment  value — will  command  admiration  of  entire 
world. 

LOS  ANGELES 

L.  A.  Times 

Two  years  of  endeavor  results  in  a  master  piece. 
Evening  Express 

*  *  *  the  film  was  punctuated  by  the  cheers  of  the  audience, 
which  by  the  way,  was  one  of  the  most  distinguished  and  unusual 
Los  Angeles  has  seen  in  many  a  day.

Box-Off  ices  Successes  for  1925 

Picked  by  more  than  1000  Exhibitors 
who  are  making  money  with  F.  B.  O.  Pictures 

"VANITY'S  PRICE" 

STARRING  ANNA  0-  NILSSON 

"Great  Box  Office  Bet." — M.  P.  World.  "A  greater  picture  than 
'Black  Oxen'." — N.  Y.  American.  "Will  Prove  Box  Office  Win- 
ner."— Ex.  Trade  Review.  "Sets  gorgeous,  Effects  perfect,  F.  B.  O. 
should  he  proud  of  this  one." — -N.  Y.  Morning  Telegraph  Story  by 
Paul  Bern.     Directed  by  R.  Wm.  Neill. 

"BROKEN   L  AW  S  " 

STARRING  MRS.  WALLACE  REID 

"Should  be  one  of  the  greatest  Box  Office  successes  of  1925 — a  sure 
fire  CLEAN-UP,  and  if  you  can't  put  this  one  over,  go  out  of  the 
business." — FILM  DAILY.  Story  by  Adele  Rogers  St.  Johns.  Di- 
rected by  R.  Wm.  Neill.  A  MONUMENTAL  BOX  OFFICE  MOP 
UP  THE  INDUSTRY  WON'T  SOON  FORGET. 

"CHEAP  KISSES" 

C.    GARDNER  SULLIVAN'S 

"Tho'  in  the  same  mould  as  'Flaming  Youth,' — 'CHEAP  KISSES'  is 
superior  to  most,  if  not  all  of  the  others.  Can  be  safely  assigned 
a  conspicuous  place  in  the  model  class." — Harrisons  Reports.  "Sure 
Fire  for  every  theatre." — N.  Y.  Morn.  Tel.  "One  of  the  best  of  the 
season.  You  can't  afford  to  miss  this  one,  it's  a  winner." — SCREEN 
NEWS. 

"PARISIAN  NIGHTS" 

STARRING  ELAINE  HAMMERSTEIN 

Here's  a  picture  with  an  atmosphere  made  to  order  for  Box  Office 
results, — gorgeously  produced,  packed  with  drama;  it  is  one  of  the  few 
real  sure  fire  bets  of  the  season. 

"THUNDERING  HOOFS" 

with  FRED  THOMSON  and  SILVER  KING 

A  knockout  for  theatres  who  cater  to  patrons  who  love  the  western 
pictures,  this  is  a  high  class  one." — M.  P.  News.  Read  also  the 
exhibitors'  reports  on  "What  the  Picture  Did  for  Me"  in  Exhibitors 
Herald.  Biggest  bet  today  on  the  screen  in  big  time  western  pictures. 
None  can  touch  Thomson  and  Silver  King. 

"THE  AIR  HAWK" 

"A  thriller.  ..  .Wilson  stages  amazing  battle  in  clouds  that  will  make 
your  house  gasp,  and  cheer." — N.  Y.  Morn.  Tel.  One  of  the  most 
thrilling  if  not  the  most  thrilling  air  stunt  pictures  ever  filmed.  In  a 
class  by  itself. 

These  are  but  a  few  of  the  many  sure  fire  box  office  successes  dis- 
tributed for  the  coming  season  by  F.  B.  O.  Ask  to  see  these  and  all  the 
other  sterling  attractions,  now  being  sold  by

C.  C.  Burr  has  selected  stories  and  built  up  a  character — 
and  to-day  JOHNNY  HINES  typifies  the  American  "Go- 
Getter'"   Clean  -  smart  -  wholesome  comedy  that  will 

be  an  inspiration  to  the  youth  of  the  land! 

Hines  Pictures  have  always  been  consistently  produced  with  a 
definitely  aimed  purpose  to  fill  a  need.  Because  our  aim  is 
being  carried  straight  to  the  Bull's  Eye  of  Exhibitor  Needs 
we  have  the  proud  satisfaction  of  pointing  back  to  1924  as 
the  most  successful  of  all  the  successful  Hines  years!

New  York  Exchanges  of  9  National 
Organizations  Using  Vidaver 
Film  Inspection  Machines 

Of  these  several  have  placed  orders  for  installa- 
tions covering  their  entire  exchange  system 


ONE  LARGE  USER'S  ENDORSEMENT: 

"Before  the  machines  were  installed  we  required  ten 
inspectors  in  the  New  York  Exchange.  After  the 
machines  had  been  installed  we  reduced  this  number 
to  six.... Any  figures  here  given  can  be  considered 
conservative  averages. . . . 

"The  ultimate  saving  in  my  mind  is  not  confined  to 
the  reduced  cost  of  machine  operation  but  rather  to 
the  benefits  derived  from  machine  inspected  film  which 
are:  better  inspection  through  the  location  of  breaks 
in  film  which  cannot  be  found  by  sight  or  touch  in 
hand  inspection  (this  proved  by  my  personal  test) ; 
added  length  of  service  of  prints  for  prints  having  con- 
tinuous machine  inspection  should  last  at  least  1-3 
longer  than  hand  inspected  prints  because  they  reach 
the  exhibitor  in  almost  perfect  physical  condition.... 

FOR  THEATRES 

Every  progressive  exhibitor  will  demand  the  installa- 
tion of  a  Vidaver  Inspection  Machine  in  his  projec- 
tion department  because  it  insures  against  white 
screens  and  imperfect  pictures.

U.  S.  BONDED  WAREHOUSE 


If  your  office  is  in  New  York  your  films  stored  in  our  vaults 
gives  you  the  assurance  of  having  your  valuable  motion  picture 
negatives  and  positives  in  the  very  safest  place  in  the  world. 
Storing  with  us  also  relieves  you  of  all  the  petty  details  of  the 
physical  handling  of  hazardous  materials  and  the  consequent  an- 
noyance of  stringent  fire  department  requirements  so  odious  to 
the  busy  executive. 

If  you  are  located  abroad  or  out  of  town  the  storage  of  your 
motion  picture  films  in  our  approved  fire-proof  vaults  at  a  nom- 
inal monthly  storage  charge  gives  you  a  service  for  which  a 
New  York  representative  would  probably  charge  you  an  amount 
equal  in  just  one  week  to  what  you  would  pay  us  in  a  whole  year. 

A  customer's  interests  are  ours  and  the  use  of  our  facilities  ef- 
fects for  him  a  great  annual  saving.  We  handle  for  a  customer 
all  of  the  details  of  a  transaction  and  the  nominal  charge  which 
we  make  is  infinitesimal  as  compared  to  the  cost  of  similar  services 
thro  other  mediums. 

Our  slogan — '"Nothing  too  big  for  us  to  undertake.  Nothing 
too  small  for  us  to  do  in  a  big  way" — Applies  particularly  to 
the  very  great  variety  of  services  which  we  are  constantly  render- 
ing to  our  satisfied  customers  in  all  parts  of  the  world. 

Send  your  films  to  our  warehouse.  Write  us  a  letter  telling 
us  to  whom  to  show  them  or  just  what  to  do  with  them.  Your 
patronage  will  be  greatly  appreciated  and  your  instructions  will 
be  carried  out  in  a  manner  that  will  be  absolutely  to  your  satis- 
faction. We  will  show  your  pictures  to  any  one  or  all  of  the 
buyers  of  American  and  foreign  rights,  and  for  a  nominal  charge 
will  execute  any  kind  of  an  agreement  you  may  require.  To  all 
of  these  services  you  are  entitled  as  a  customer  of

AMERICAN   RY.  EXPRESS  DISTRIBUTION 

The  Railway  Express  Film  Transport  Co.  was 
organized   in    October   and   it   was   reported  that 


the  American  Railway  Express  Co.  was  back 
of  the  move ;  that  distribution  along  the  lines 
suggested  by  Walter  W.  Irvin,  whose  plan  was 
awarded  the  $1,000  prize  of  the  Motion  Picture 
News,  would  be  carried  out. 

It  is  understood  that  the  plan  calls  for  the 
American  Railway  Express  Company  to  erect  a 
central  exchange  building  in  each  of  a  predeter- 
mined number  of  key  cities,  probably  about  thirty 
all  told.  The  releasing  facilities  of  every  dis- 
tributor will  be  therein  centered.  There  will  be 
no    interference    with    sales   policies    or  salesmen. 


EQUIPMENT  DEALERS  OFFICERS 

H.  J.  Smith,  president;  Joe  Hornstein,  first  vice- 
president;  Leo  E.  Dwyer,  second;  C.  D.  Strublo,

rectors :  Adele  De  Berri,  J.  E.  McAuley,  Chicago ; 
Irving  Samuels,  Allentown,  Pa.,  and  W.  J.  New- 
man, Cincinnati.   

THE  MENACE  OF  ALLOCATION 

The  most  important 
development  for  the  com- 
ing year  so  far  as  United 
Artists  is  concerned,  is 
the  completion  of  the 
program  which  we  have 
mapped  out.  We  have 
every  reason  to  believe 
that  during  the  coming 
year  United  Artists  will 
take  its  place  which  it 
properly  and  justifiably 
deserves.  We  will  have 
fifteen  pictures  fo'r  re- 
Joseph  M.  Schenck  lease  from  the  season  be 
ginning  next  September-October.

THE  MENACE  OF  ALLOCATION 

(Continued  from  page  265) 
It  is  my  belief  that  during  the  coming  year 
something  must  be  done  to  meet  the  ever  increas- 
ing annoyance  and  difficulty  developing  among 
smaller  circuits  of  theaters  all  over  the  country, 
and  the  allocation  of  product  from  one  exhibitor 
to  the  other  with  an  ensuing  decrease  in  rental 
values  to  the  distributor.  The  larger  and  more 
important  circuits  in  their  buying  of  pictures 
realizing  the  need  of  product  for  their  extensive 
investments  usually  pay  the  distributor  or  pro- 
ducer a  very  fair  price  for  product.  But  among 
the  exhibitors  operating  smaller  houses  where  a 
town  or  a  section  is  controlled  either  through  a 
booking  arrangement  or  otherwise  there  does  not 
seem  to  be  that  fairness  so  essential  to  live  and 
let  live,  which  must  become  effective  to  insure  the 
continuance  of  this  industry. 

The  producers  and  distributors  cannot  live  ex- 
cepting upon  a  decent  profit.  They  must  make 
money  to  continue  in  business.  Such  operations 
as  I  have  mentioned  carry  it  to  an  extreme  and 
will  mean  eventually  that  either  producers  and  dis- 
tributors must  compete  in  theaters  in  these  sections 
or  go  out  of  business.  This  in  my  opinion  is  the 
greatest  menace  facing  our  industry  and  something 
must  be  done  to  correct  it. 


this  industry's  grand  opportunity  that  Pathe  and 
its  producers  are  going  to  contribute  their  share 
toward  realization.

PUBLIC  WILLING  TO   SPEND  MILLIONS 

Conditions  have  been 
so  good  during  1924  that 
our  industry  could  scarce- 
ly wish  for  better,  and 
yet,  according  to  every  in- 
dication that  we  steer  our 
business  by,  it  certainly 
looks  as  though  condi- 
tions were  going  to  be 
quite  a  little  better  for 
1925. 

After  the  severe  lesson 
the  industry  learned  jusl 
a  couple  of  years  ago 
from  producing  too  many 
pictures,  let  us  all  sin- 
cerely hope  that  next 
year's  increased  business  will  reflect  itself  not  in 
increased  numbers  of  pictures  but  have  most  of  it 
go  into  much  better  pictures  and  thereby  con- 
solidate for  all  time  the  gain  in  public  patronage 
and  approbation.  While  there  will  be  no  in- 
crease in  Pathe's  number  of  reels  we  shall  offer 
for  the  favor  of  our  exhibitor  friends  and  the 
delectation  and  amusement  of  their  public  by 
far  the  best  array  of  talent  and  the  best  pictures 
of  every  kind  it  has  ever  been  our  pleasure  to 
release  and  considering  Pathe's  1924  program,  we 
think  that  is  promising  something. 

We  have  estimated  the  additional  cost  of  so 
doing  will  be  from  30  to  50  per  cent  greater 
than  1924. 

I  think  the  public  are  willing  to  and  able  to 
increase  box  office  recepits  by  $100,000,000  if 
only  the  shows  are  good  enough  and  I  mean  the 
whole  show;  every  reel  on  the  program.    That  is 


FEWER  PLAYS  BOUGHT  FOR  PICTURES 

A  steady  decline  was  noted  in  the  number 
of  Broadway  stage  plays  purchased  for  pictures 
during  1924.  Three  seasons  ago  157  new  plays 
were  produced,  out  of  which  thirty-three  were 
made  into  pictures.  Two  seasons  ago,  there  were 
124  plays  put  on  and  of  that  number,  twenty-six 
were  sold  for  film  production.  The  past  season 
saw  125  plays  and  out  of  that  number  only  fifteen 
were  disposed  of  for  the  screen. 

These  interesting  figures  were  compiled  in  No- 
vember by  Robert  G.  Lisman,

PRODUCTION  SURVEY 

The  Los  Angeles  Examiner  in  November  made 
a  survey  of  productions  for  1925  and  the  figures 
totaled  over  35  million  to  be  spent,  not  includ- 
ing a  number  of  companies. 

Joseph  M.  Schenck,  President  of  the  West 
Coast  Producers,  in  a  statement  issued  in  October 
said  that  680  pictures  were  scheduled  to  be  made 
during  the  year.

The  Independent 

By  DANNY 

A  most  important  part  of  this  tremendous  industry. 

Essential ;  almost  vital,  indeed,  to  its  development  and 
growth. 

Over  the  long  stretch  of  years.  From  the  earliest  days. 
You  will  find  the  producer  of  independent  pictures  an  out- 
standing figure.  Always  fighting;  always  in  the  forefront 
of  the  fray. 

It  was  the  spirit  of  the  Independent  that  broke  up  the 
old  General  Film  Company.  It  is  that  self  same  spirit 
which  will  always  keep  the  Independent  as  such  an  impor- 
tant part  of  this  business. 

The  Independent  producer  and  distributor — the  inde- 
pendent exhibitor — -the  independent  in  every  branch — is 
the  life  blood  of  motion  pictures.  Take  him  away.  Kill 
that  Independence,  and  what  would  be  left? 

Try  and  recall  a  great,  important  picture  up  to  a  year 
or  so  ago.  And  then  also  recall  that  an  independent  made 
it.  During  the  past  few  years  the  larger  organizations  have 
been  producing  notable,  outstanding  and  great  pictures. 
It  is  to  be  hoped  they  will  continue.  Because  the  industry 
needs  all  it  can  obtain.  From  any  source  whatsoever.  But 
the  independent  has  always  been  doing  the  pioneering  work. 
And  probably  will  continue. 

The  first  run  situation  in  many  of  the  larger  cities  is 
practically  blocked  out  not  only  to  the  independent  producer 
but  to  many  of  the  larger  and  older  concerns,  but  even  so, 
the  Independent  does  not  despair.  He  fights  his  way 
through.  Many  deserving  excellent  box  office  attractions 
made  by  the  so-called  Independent  Producer  do  not  begin 
to  obtain  the  recognition  they  deserve  from  larger  and  more 
important  houses.  This  may  be  due  to  block  booking  or  to 
other  conditions,  but  the  fact  remains  that  the  Independent 
suffers. 

During  the  past  year  the  Independent  producers  and 
distributors  have  organized.  They  have  an  active,  worthy 
organization.  It  is  to  be  hoped  that  it  will  do  much — be- 
cause much  is  needed — to  bring  even  greater  confidence, 
greater  enthusiasm,  into  the  ranks  of  the  Independents.

Again  • 

— in  the  Morning  Telegraph 

Next  year's  plans  for  Chadwick  Pictures  Company  indicate  that  it  will 
land  in  the  very  front  rank  of  independent  producers.  I.  E.  Chadwick 
now  has  in  mind  a  George  Walsh  series,  a  Theda  Bara  series,  a 
Lionel  Barrymore  series  and  a  group  of  Larry  Semon  feature  comedies, 
the  first  of  which  is  the  already  completed  production  of  "The  Wizard 
of  Oz."  "The  Unchastened  Woman,"  in  which  Theda  Bara  will  re- 
appear before  the  public,  is  another  vehicle  of  considerable  box  office 
power.  Other  stories  of  the  same  box  office  type  are  being  lined  up 
and  yesterday  word  came  from  the  Chadwick  offices  here  that  the  com- 
pany would  endeavor  to  secure  the  services  of  at  least  two  nationally 
known  directors.    Happy  Independent  Year!

"$50,000  REWARD,"  the  first  picture  of  this  series  of  eight  different  Westerns, 
is  already  cleaning-up  for  exhibitors  everywhere.  Maynard  is  a  new  type  of  cow- 
boy hero — he  is  young,  handsome  and  daring.  Here  is  a  star  who  can  both  act 
and  ride  and  who  is  bound  to  make  many  new  friends  for  your  theatre.  Frank  ' 
Howard  Clark,  noted  scenario  writer,  prepared  the  stories  for  this  entire  series, 
thus  assuring  you  of  plenty  of  action,  thrills  and  romance.  "Fighting  Courage," 
the  second  picture  of  this  group,  is  now  ready  for  release.    It's  a  winner!

Exhibitors  and  exchange  men  everywhere  know  "Al"  Smith,  the  independent 
producer.  They  know  that  he  is  a  man  who  never  does  thing  half-ways  and  as 
a  result  his  productions  are  eagerly  sought  for  by  showmen.  Mr.  Smith  has 
produced  a  series  of  Frontier  Days  pictures  for  our  release,  and  we  are  proud  to 
announce  his  affiliation  with  this  company.  GENERAL  CHARLES  KING, 
famous  author  and  the  creator  of  the  picturesque  frontiersman  of  fiction,  sold  us 
eight  of  his  most  thrilling  stories  for  picturization  and  "Under  Fire,"  the  first 
book  of  this  group,  is  already  filmed  and  ready  for  immediate  delivery.

Five  of  JAMES  OLIVER  CURWOOD'S  most  thrilling  and  entertaining  novels 
are  picturized  for  this  series  starring  LAWSON  HARIS,  who  also  is  the  pro- 
ducer. "MY  NEIGHBOR'S  WIFE"  is  now  being  distributed  and  "LAW  OR 
LOYALTY,"  the  first  production  in  this  group,  is  meeting  with  tremendous  suc- 
cess everywhere.  THERE  is  not  a  more  popular  author  than  JAMES  OLIVER 
CURWOOD  and  his  name  spells  SUCCESS  with  capital  letters  for  the  exhib- 
itors who  are  fortunate  enough  to  capture  this  prize  series. 

8    De  Luxe  Feature  Series  8 

Here  is  something  entirely  new  in  screen  entertainment.  You've  said  that  there 
is  "nothing  new  under  the  sun"  and  now  we  are  prepared  to  show  you  where 
you  are  wrong.  This  group  of  features  will  deal  with  the  underworld  life  in  such 
cities  as  New  York,  London  and  Paris  and  a  very  popular  feminine  star,  whose 
name  we  are  not  at  liberty  to  mention  at  this  time,  will  be  featured  throughout 
the  series  of  six  specials.  Famous  books  are  being  adapted  and  we'll  soon  be 
ready  to  announce  the  titles  and  the  name  of  the  star  of  the  "STELLAR  SIX." 
Watch  and  wait  for  them.    It  will  be  worth  while. 


From  time  to  time  we  will  augment  our  release  schedule  with  worthwhile 
attractions  but  inasmuch  as  our  aim  is  "quality"  rather  than  "quantity," 
we  will  never  undertake  to  distribute  a  series  of  pictures  that  we  cannot  put 
out  under  our  bonded  guarantee.  If  it's  a  "C.S.E."  picture,  it  is  bound 
to  be  good  screen  entertainment.    Bear  that  in  mind.

EXHIBITORS  TO  EXCHANGE  IDEAS 

An  important  group  of  Mid-Western  theater 
managers  banded  together  in  July,  in  an  organiza- 
tion expressly  formed  for  the  purpose  of  exchang- 
ing ideas  and  hunches  on  general  showmanship 
problems. 

The  credit  for  the  idea  goes  to  Ace  Berry, 
managing  director  of  the  Circle,  Indianapolis. 
Roundtable  discussions  are  held  every  four  or 
five  weeks  in  Chicago.  A  bulletin  system  has 
been  adopted,  so  that  each  member  can  find  what 
his  associate  member  in  a  neighboring  town  is 
doing  with  presentations;  how  the  stage  was  ar- 
ranged, the  distribution  of  lights,  the  length  of 
the  musical  numbers,  of  the  prologue  to  the 
feature,  of  the  dance  numbers  and  the  like. 

There  is  a  possibility  that,  later  on,  an  inter- 
sale  of  drops  and  general  scenic  investitures  will 
be  arranged  in  order  to  cut  the  overhead  costs 
of  putting  on  the  shows,  week  by  week. 

Members  include:  Harold  Finkelstein,  Minne- 
apolis; Howard  Pierce  and  Tom  Moulte,  Kunsky 
theaters,  Detroit ;  Ed  Weisfeldt,  Saxe  theaters, 
Milwaukee;  Arthur  Stolte,  Capitol,  Des  Moines; 
W.  B.  Watts,  Rialto,  Omaha;  Ralph  R.  Blank, 
Capitol,  Davenport,  la. ;  Abe  Hymans,  operating 
houses  in  Charleston,  Bluefield  and  Huntington. 
W.  Va. ;  Bob  Smith,  Skouras  theaters,  St.  Louis ; 
Fred  Desberg,  Loew  theaters,  Cleveland ;  Ike 
Libson,  Cincinnati ;  John  Harris,  Pittsburgh,  and 
Guy  Wonders,  Baltimore.  Ace  Berry  is  president 
and  Harold  Finkelstein,  secretary-treasurer. 


It)  September,  the  Film  Board  of  Trade  of 
Cleveland   rearranged   the   Ohio  territory   into  49 

zones.

INTERNAL  REVENUE  TAX  DECISION 
Relative   to    Lease    and    Contract  Conditions 

The  value  of  theater  leases,  good  will  con- 
nected therewith,  and  film  contracts  acquired  for 
stock  must  be  determined,  for  invested  capital 
purposes  under  the  provisions  of  the  Revenue  Act 
of  1918,  in  the  light  of  facts  and  circumstances 
existing  at  the  time  of  the  acquisition  thereof. 
The  subsequent  earnings  alone  which  are  not 
shown  to  have  been  reasonable,  anticipated  or 
based  upon  past  experience  or  known  existing 
facts  are  not  sufficient  evidence  to  establish  a 
valuation  of  such  assets.  This  the  United  States 
Board  of  Tax  Appeals  has  ruled  in  deciding 
adversely  to  the  appeal  of  the  Saenger  Amuse- 
ment Company,  Inc.,  from  a  deficiency  in  tax 
assessed  by  the  Commissioner  of  Internal  Revenue 
in  December. 

The  appeal  involved  excess  profits  taxes  for 
1918  and  1919,  and  arose  from  the  disallowance  by 


the  company  of  certain  theater  leases,  good  will 
conected  theiewith,  and  film  contracts,  and  also 
from  the  disallowance  in  invested  capital  of  the 
amount  of  stock  issued,  based  upon  the  writing 
up  of  the  value  of  film  contracts  acquired  from 
outside  interests  in  the  ordinary  course  of  busi- 
ness. 

When  the  Saenger  Amusement  Company  was 
incorporated  in  1913  as  a  successor  to  the  partner- 
ship of  Saenger  Brothers,  it  had  a  capital  stock 
of  $100,000  par  value  and  acquired  leases  on  the 
Saenger,  Palace,  Queen,  Lyceum  and  Princes? 
Theaters.  John  and  Ad  Saenger  each  held  40 
per  cent  of  the  stock  and  L.  M.  Ash  and  E.  V. 
Richards  were  each  given  10  per  cent  of  the  stock. 
No  property  was  turned  in  by  either  L.  M.  Ash 
or  E.  V.  Richards,  but  the  Saengers  exchanged 
leases  on  the  five  theaters,  the  equipment  therein 
and  good  will  connected  therewith,  and  film  con- 
tracts for  their  share  of  the  stock. 

In  1915,  contracts  were  made  with  certain  pro- 
ducers, and  the  corporation  issued  an  additional 
amount  of  $50,000  par  value  stock  to  its  stock- 
holders in  proportion  to  their  stock  ownership 
which  represented  the  value  of  the  contracts  as 
determined  by  the  corporation  in  excess  of  the 
consideration  required  to  be  paid  for  the  use  of 
films. 

The  Commissioner  disallowed  the  value  of  the 
leases  on  the  various  theaters,  on  the  ground  that 
no  value  had  been  established,  and  also  the  al- 
leged value  of  the  film  contracts  on  the  ground 
that  it  was  not  proven  that  they  had  a  value  in 
excess  of  the  consideration  required  to  be  paid 
for  the  use  of  the  films. 

In  handing  down  its  opinion,  the  Board  of  Tax 
Appeals  pointed  cut  that  the  question  involved  is 
whether  the  film  contracts  and  the  theater  leases 
had  an  actual  value.  The  taxpayer  relied  upon 
the  earnings  of  the  corporation  and  the  success 
which  it  attained  in  subsequent  years  to  establish 
the  value  of  the  leases,  contracts,  etc.,  turned 
over  to  it  for  stock  when  it  was  organized. 

"While  subsequent  earnings  are  not  to  be  dis- 
regarded in  determining  the  values  of  leases  and 
contracts,  it  must  be  kept  in  mind  that  it  is 
only  the  value  of  assets  shown  to  exist  at  the 
time  the  stock  was  issued  therefore  which  can 
be  included  in  invested  capital,"  the  decision  holds. 
"The  determination  of  values  of  assets  paid  in 
for  stock  must  be  made  in  the  light  of  all  avail- 
able evidence  existing  at  the  date  of  the  acqui- 
sition. Subsequent  earnings  may  be  used  only 
to  corroborate  or  substantiate  a  valuation  based 
on  the  reasonable  expectation  of  future  earnings 
A  valuation,  however,  based  upon  the  expecta- 
tion of  future  earnings  must  be  determined  in 
the  light  of  known  facts  existing  at  that  time 
or  upon  past  experience.  A  hope  of  future  earn- 
ings not  based  upon  some  known  facts  or  cir- 
cumstances, or  a  mere  guess  by  the  owners  as  to 
the  future  earning  capacity,  however  accurate 
it  may  be  proven  to  be  by  subsequent  events, 
does  not  prove  value.  Future  earnings  alone  are 
not  proof  without  reference  to  the  facts  from 
which  they  could  have  been  reasonably  antici- 
pated." 

Similar  reasoning  is  applied  to  the  film  contracts 
under  consideration.

tors. 

2 —  To  raise  to  a  higher  plane  the  business  of 
the  independent  producers  and  distributors 
of  motion  pictures. 

3 —  To  foster  and  encourage  the  owner  man- 
ager of  exchanges  and  theaters. 

4 —  To  foster  and  encourage  the  independent  pro-

fare of  its  members  by  maintaining  a  proper 
and  efficient  central  headquarters  which  shall 
operate  and  function  more  particularly  along 
lines  as  follows: 

A — To  collect  for  the  benefit  of  its  members,

proper  interest. 

E — To  collect  for  and  distribute  to  members 
accurate  statistics  and  information  with

formation concerning  distributors  of  motion 
pictures  in  foreign  countries;  their  activi- 
ties, personnel,  equipment  and  other  infor-

THE  PAST,  PRESENT  AND  FU- 
TURE OF  THE  INDEPENDENT 

BY   JESSE  J.  GOLDBURG 

The  present  standing  and  the  future  prospects 
of  the  independent  producer  and  distributor  may 
briefly   be  chronicled  as  follows : 

Twelve  years  ago  we  were  selling  State  Right 
Productions  by  the  foot  and  our  main  competitor 
centered  in  the  General  Film.  We  had  no  com- 
bination or  attempted  consolidation  of  producers. 
We  had  no  theater  combinations  and  it  was  a  free- 
for-all  race  with  State  Right  buyers  playing  a 
hit-and-miss  game  and  refusing  to  observe  any 
business  ethics.  Duping,  piracy  and  general 
knavery  was  the  order  of  the  day.  Credit  to  or 
from  a  producer  was  unknown.  Everything  was 
done  on  a  cash  basis. 

Then  gradually  with  Paramount,  First  National. 
Metro  and  other  theater  owner-distributor  com- 
binations coming  into  being,  the  State  Right 
producer  was  compelled  to  stabilize  his  end  of 
the  business. 

For  the  past  five  years  it  has  been  a  struggle 
and  a  battle  to  secure  recognition  of  independent 
product,  and  during  those  five  years  many  ex- 
periments were  had  with  some  resolving  them- 
selves into  permanent  business  policy  and  others 
discarded. 

Today  the  independent  producer  is  a  recog 
nized  factor  in  a  field  all  his  own. 

He  virtually  controls  the  production  and  dis- 
tiibution  of  a  certain  class  of  product;  namely, 
the  popi'lai  priced  production  appealing  largely 
to  neighborhood  and  small  town  theaters. 

Credit  is  given  and  extended ;  finances  are 
available,  and  ethical  business  standards  are  fol- 
lowed (with  branches  here  and  there),  but  there 
is  no  denying  the  fact  that  the  independent 
producer  is  the  salvation  of  tne  independent  ex- 
hibitor. 

The  very  nature  of  independent  production  and 
distribution  requires  greater  concentration  in  ex- 
ploitation and  the  avoidance  of  all  forms  of 
extravagance,  either  in  produuetion  or  in  the 
operation  of  studio   and  executive  establishments. 

Reckoning  those  who  are  entitled  to  be  labelled 
as  independent  producers,  it  is  a  fact  that  49 
per  cent  of  the  motion  pictures  made  in  the 
United  States  emanate  from  independent  producers 
and  independent  studios.  The  moral  support  which 
we  independents  receive,  and  the  variation  of  our 
product,  without  the  entangling  alliance  of  star 
contracts  or  director  contracts,  justifies  the  pre- 
diction that  within  three  years  at  least  60  per 
cent  of  motion  picture  product  in  the  United 
States  will  be  labeled  of  independent  manufacture. 

To  maintain  and  advance  this  position  requires 
only  our  operating  on  a  strict  business  basis ; 
the  elimination  or  reduction  of  surplus  overhead; 
the  avoidance  of  carrying  charges  between  pic- 
tures; and  cooperation  between  the  producer  and 
the  State  Right  buyer,  but  more  essential,  a 
greater  cooperation  than  now  exists  between  the 
State  Right  buyer  and  the  theater. 

There  is  not,  and  never  can  be,  a  monopoly 
on  professional  and  technical  service.  Hence,  the 
best  is  available  to  the  independent  producer  for 
the  benefit  of  the  exhibitors  throughout  the  world. 


CHILDREN'S  MATINEE  PRO- 
GRAMS 

The  Committee  on  Public  Relations,  which 
works  in  co-operation  with  the  Motion  Picture 
Producers  and  Distributors  of  America — the  Hays 
organization — has  taken  a  very  definite  step  tow- 
ards supplying  the  increased  demand  for  chil- 
dren's matinee  programs  which  has  been  coming 
from  all  parts  of  the  country. 

After  many  months  of  study  and  the  exami- 
nation of  thousands  of  long  and  short  subjects, 
about  ICO  complete  programs  suitable  for  children 
have  been  selected  and  some  of  these  were  already 


shown  at  the  beginning  of  the  year,  more  es 
pecially  in  the  South. 

All  the  companies  malting  up  the  Hays'  Organi- 
zation have  cooperated  heartily  with  the  Com- 
mittee on  Public  Relations  in  getting  together 
these  programs.  The  feature  subjects  are  not  ex- 
actly new,  it  is  true.  Indeed,  most  of  them  have 
been  withdrawn  from  general  circulation.  So  that 
there  need  be  no  fear  on  the  part  of  exhibitors 
as  to  unfair  competition. 

The  operation  of  this  plan  has  been  worked 
out  in  detail.  Special  containers  have  been  pre- 
pared which  hold  a  complete  program — the  fea 
ture,  the  comedy  and  the  one-reel  instructional 
subject.  These  reels  are  frequently  owned  by 
three  different  companies  but  they  are  kept  to- 
gether in  the  one  container  and  handled  physi- 
cally in  one  exchange  center  in  each  key  city. 

The  admission  price  for  the  children,  it  is

Censor  Board  Standards 


BIRMINGHAM,  ALA. 

Amusement  Inspector,   Mrs.  Myrtelle  W.  Snell, 
City  Hall 

Birmingham  has  an  amusement  inspector,  ap- 
pointed by  the  Commissioner  of  Public  Safety. 
Twenty-five  theaters  are  under  inspection.  This 
includes  one  so-called  road  house  and  three  vaude- 
ville theaters,  two  of  which  show  feature  pictures 
regularly  in  connection  with  the  vaudeville. 

Says  Mrs.  Snell :  "The  plan  for  inspection  of 
motion  pictures  in  Birmingham  is  similar  to  that 
of  Boston  and  many  othe  places.  A  city  ordi- 
nance requires  that  all  exhibitors  file  in  the  office 
of  the  inspector  their  booking  lists  for  the  coming 
week.  It  is  the  duty  of  the  inspector  to  check 
these  lists  by  the  bulletins  of  the  National  Board 
of  Review.  If  any  eliminations  in  plays  have  been 
requested  by  the  Board;  the  inspector  types  them 
and  sends  them  to  the  exhibitors  who  are  re- 
quired to  see  that  the  eliminations  are  made.  If 
they  have  not  been  made  before  the  film  was  re- 
ceived, they  are  made  here  and  the  fact  that  it  was 
necessary  to  make  cuts  here  is  reported  to  the 
National  Board  of  Review,  who  take  up  the  matter 
with  the  producing  company  and  insist  on  said 
eliminations  being  made  in  the  future. 

"In  the  event  that  any  plays  are  to  be  presented 
that  have  not  been  passed  by  the  National  Board, 
the  inspector  may  require  a  private  showing  before 
the  play  is  shown  publicly.  Posters  are  viewed 
regularly. 

"In  order  to  do  constructive  work  for  better 
films,  a  Better  Films  Committee  has  been  organized 
to  work  in  co-operation  with  the  city  amusement 
inspector,  to  encourage,  foster  and  promote  clean, 
wholesome  and  better  films  to  disseminate  infor- 
mation concerning  curret  releases,  in  order  that 
the  public  may  exercise  an  intelligent  selection 
of  their  individual  entertainment  and  to  promote 
the  use  of  motion  pictures  in  institutions,  hospi- 
tals and  rural  communities.  Thirty-five  organiza- 
tions are  affiliated  members.  There  are  eighty 
individual  members.  Other  clubs  not  affiliated 
with  the  Better  Films  Committee  have  motion 
picture  committees  who  co-operate  with  the  Bet- 
ter Films  Committee.  Churches,  schools,  libraries 
fraternal  and  civic  organizations,  parent-teachers 
associations,  the  D.  A.  R.  and  federated  clubs  are 
represented  on  the  Executive  Board.  Eight  visit- 
ing committees  of  six  members  each  visit  daily 
the  pictures  in  the  neighborhood  theaters  and  re- 
port to  the  city  inspector. 

"An  indorsing  committee  views  all  first-run 
plays  in  down  town,  theaters  every  Monday  and 
report  to  the  inspector.  Those  plays  considered 
worthy  are  indorsed  and  the  reports  are  publish- 
ed weekly,  on  Tuesday,  in  the  Birmingham  News 
in  a  Better  Films  column. 

"Lists  of  plays  for  the  week  that  are  on  the 
selected  list  of  the  National  Better  Films  Com- 
mittee of  the  National  Board  of  Review  are  pre- 
pared by  the  inspector  and  published  weekly  in 
the  News,  Age-Herald  and  Post.  The  approved 
lists  are  also  posted  in  the  City  Hall,  in  the  cen- 
tral library,  in  hotels,  in  club  rooms,  all  High 
Schools,  colleges,  private  schools  and  in  some  of 
the  elementary  schools. 

"Boys'  and  Girls'  Matinees  have  been  put  on 
by  two  exhibitors  with  the  co-operation  of  the 
Better  Films  Committee  and  the  inspector. 

"An  alphabetical  card  index  of  all  first  run 
plays  viewed  in  Birmingham  is  on  file  in  the  office 
of  the  amusement  inspector. 

"Thq  city  inspector  has  the  co  operation  of  the 
City  Commissioners  ,  the  local  exhibitors,  several 
clergymen,  the  schools,  the  press,  the  club  women 
and  the  women  of  the  parent-teachers  associations.

Standards 

Their  standards  of  censoring  are  principally 
against  obscene  and  indecent  scenes  in  pictures 
or  in  the  theme  of  a  picture.  Ususally  they  will 
permit  or  suggest  changes  in  pictures  to  meet 
their  standards.  They  also  are  rather  strict  in 
censoring  anything  relating  to  criminology,  such 
as  scenes  with  unnecessary  gun  play,  finger  prints, 
burglaries  and  so  forth. 

Their  jurisdiction  is  only  over  pictures  shown 
in  the  city  of  Detroit,  but  the  eliminations  and 
changes  that  they  make  are  practically  universally 
carried  out  by  the  film  exchanges  throughout  the 
state. 

The  censor  board  does  not  make  public  its  re- 
jections for  the  year,  except  in  a  report  to  the 
commissioner  of  police  which  may  or  may  not 
reach  the  newspapers.

A  statement  issued  by  the  Motion  Picture  Com- 
mission of  the  State  of  New  York  says  that  it 
"has  not  established  any  fixed  rules  or  standards 
for  the  judging  of  pictures  except  those  prescribed 
by  the  statute  creating  the  Commission. 

No  motion  picture  will  be  licensed  or  a  permit 
granted  for  its  exhibition  within  the  State  of  New 
York,  which  may  be  classified,  or  any  part  there- 
of, as  obscene,  indecent,  immoral,  inhuman,  sacri- 
legious, or  which  is  of  such  a  character  that 
its  exhibition  would  tend  to  corrupt  morals  or 
incite  to  crime. 

"The  Commission  has  deemed  it  wise  not  to 
attempt  to  formulate  fixed  standards  or  rules  for 
the  reviewing  of  pictures,  but  rather  to  examine 
each  picture  on  its  merits  to  determine  whether 
the  film,  or  any  portion  of  it,  violates  any  pro- 
visions of  the  statute."

All  scenes  which  are  obscene,  salacious,  inde- 
cent, immoral,  or  teach  false  ethics,  such  as  the 
following,    should    be  eliminated:

aggerate sex  appeal  or  depict  scenes 
therein  exploiting  interest  in  sex  in  an 
immoral  or  suggestive  form  or  manner. 

(2)  Those  based  upon  white  slavery  or 
commercialized  vice  or  scenes  show- 
ing the  procurement  of  women  or  any 

of  the  activities  attendant  upon  thia 
traffic. 

(3)  Those  thematically  making  prominent 
an  illicit  love  affair  which  tends  to 
make  virtue  odious  and  vice  attractive. 

(4)  Scenes  which  exhibit  nakedness  or  per- 
sons scantily  and  suggestively  dressed, 
particularly  suggestive  bedroom  and 
oath  room  scenes  and  scenes  of  incit- 
ing dances. 

(5)  Scenes  which  unnecessarily  prolong  ex- 
pressions or  demonstrations  of  pas- 
sionate love. 

(6)  Stcries  or  scenes  which  are  vulgar  and 
portray  improper  gestures,  postures,  and 
attitudes.

sexual  vice  accompanied  by  luxury 
makes  vice  excusable. 

(b)  VICE,  CRIME  AND  VIOLENCE 

(1)  Theme  predominantly  concerned  with 
the  underworld  or  vice  or  crime,  and 
like  scenes;  unless  the  scenes  are  a 
part  of  an  essential  conflict  between 
good  and  evil. 

(2)  Stories  which  make  crime,  drunkenness 
and  gambling,  and  like  scenes  which 
show  the  use  of  narcotics  and  other  un- 
natural practices  dangerous  to  social 
morality,  attractive. 

(3)  Stories  and  scenes  which  may  instruct 
the  immature  and  susceptible  in  methods 
zi  committing  crime  or  by  cumulative 
processes  emphasize  crime  and  the  com- 
mission of  crime. 

(4)  Stories  or  scenes  which  unduly  em- 
phasize bloodshed  and  violence  with- 
out justification  in  the  structure  of  the 
body. 

(5)  Scenes  which,  tend  to  produce  approval 
of  business  institutions  or  conditions, 
that  naturally  tend  to  degrade  and  de- 
prave mankind. 

(6)  Productions  whose  tendency  is  to  in- 
cite sympathy  for  those  engaged  in 
parasitical  or  criminal  activities. 

(7)  Productions  that  teach  fatalism  or  the 
futility  of  individual  resistance  of  ad- 
versity. 

(8)  Expiation  of  crime  by  some  act  of 
physical  bravery. 

(9)  Crime  must  no  tbe  made  attractive  and 
the  punishment  must  be  clearly  and 
adequately  portrayed.

stars  who  have  committed  crimes  or

judged  by  generally  accepted  mora'

funerals,  hospitals,  insane  asylums,  the  lying-in  of 
women  and  houses  of  ill-fame  will  be  disapproved. 

Sensual  kissing  and  love-making  scenes,  men 
and  women  in  bed  together  and  indelicate  sexual 
situations,  whether  in  comedies  or  pictures  of 
other  classes,  will  be  disapproved.  Bathing  scenes 
which  pass  the  limits  of  propriety,  lewd  and  im- 
modest dancing,  the  needless  exhibition  of  women 
in  their  night  dresses  or  underclothing,  will  be 
dissapproved. 

Views  of  women  smoking  will  not  he  disap- 
proved as  such,  but  when  women  are  snown  in 
suggestive  positions,  or  their  manner  of  smoking 
is  suggestive  or  degrading,  such  scenes  will  be  dis- 
approved. 

That  the  theme  or  story  of  a  picture  is  adapted 
from  a  publication,  whether  c.assic?l  or  not,  or 
that  portions  of  a  picture  follow  painings  or  other 
illustrations,  is  not  a  sufficient  reason  for  the  ap- 
proval of  a  picttre  or  portions  of  A  picture. 

Themes  or  incidents  in  uicture  stories,  which 
are  designed  to  inflame  the  mind  to  improper  ad- 
ventures, or  to  ratiM'i«1i  false  standards  of  con- 
duct, coming  undc.-  th~  foregoing  classes,  or  of 
other  kinds,  will  be  disapproved. 

Banners,  posters  or  other  advertising  matter 
concerning  motion  pictures  must  follow  the  rules 
laid  down  for  the  pictures  themselves. 

The  Pennsylvania  State  Board  of  Censors  of

The  following  regulations  were  adopted  ifi  1922 
by  the  Pennsylvania  State  Department  of  Labor 
and  Industry  concerning  the  showings  of  non- 
theatrical  films: 

1.  No  permit  will  be  issued  for  any  auditorium 
for  the  use  of  flammable  film  where  an  enclosing, 
standard  fire-proof  booth  is  not  provided  for  the 
projection  machine. 

2.  No  permit  will  be  issued  for  any  auditorium

3.  No  permit  will  be  issued  for  any  auditorium 
located  about  the  second  floor  of  a  building. 

4.  No  permit  will  be  issued  for  any  auditorium 
for  the  use  of  any  balcony  for  any  purpose  other 
than  to  accommodate  the  projection  machine, 
booth   and  accessory  equipment. 

5.  No  permit  will  be  issued  for  an  auditorium

where  the  machine  to  be  used  has  not  been 
approved  by  the  Industrial  Board  for  the  use 
intended.

must  be  submitted  to  the  office  of  the  Chief  In- 
spector, Department  of  Labor  and  Industry. 

Providence,  R.  I. 

Lieutenant  George  W.  Cowan,  Providence  Police, 
approves  any  picture  passed  by  the  National  Board 
of  Review. 

Memphis,  Tenn. 

Mrs.  S.  J.  Ellis,  976  Oakview  Ave.;  John  M. 
Dean,  Central  Bank  Bldg. ;  Percy  Scholars,  c  /  o 
Bowers  Stores,  Inc. 

Suggestive  scenes  and  subtitles  are  carefully  cut 
Especially  strict  with  regard  to  anything  tending 
to  show  the  details  of  crime,  the  means  of  suicide, 
or  any  scenes  where  the  stamp  of  approval  is 
placed  upon  moral  lapses. 

Chairman  Dean  says:  "The  Memphis  Board  of 
Censorship  has  no  clearly  defined  standards  of 
censorship.  Each  picture,  play  or  act  is  judged 
on  its  own  merits.  Generally  speaking,  however, 
the  Board  endeavors  to  judge  pictures  on  the 
following  basis : 

"We  insist  that  films  which  handle  sex  prob- 
lems must  do  so  from  the  standpoint  of  moral 
betterment.  That  is,  such  a  vital  and  delicate 
matter  should  not  be  treated  so  as  to  condone 
wrong,  making  a  jest  of  it  or  in  a  manner  which 
might  encourage  or  excuse  wrong  doing.  We  par- 
ticularly insist  that  infidelity  to  the  marriage  re- 
lation should  not  be  handled  in  a  humorous  way. 
We  also  discourage  scenes  depicting  at  great 
length  the  alleged  humorous  actions  of  a  drunken 
man,  and  it  should  go  without  saying  that  we 
will  not  permit  exhibitions  which  tend  to  en- 
courage violations  of  the  Eighteenth  Amendment. 
The  Board  will  not  allow  the  exhibition  of  a 
prize  fight  picture  which  has  been  brought  into 
the  state  in  violation  of  Federal  laws — this  on 
the  ground  that  we  cannot  be  made  parties  to 
such  a  violation  even  though  the  local  Federal 
Court  may  have  imposed  some  form  of  penalty 
for  the  act.  We  also  forbid  the  exploitation  of 
films  which  tend  to  heroize  ex-bandits.  Thus  we 
have  refused  to  permit  the  Al  Jennings  and  sim- 
ilar pictures  to  be  shown.  We  allow  consider- 
able latitude  in  the  matter  of  costumes  and  situa- 
tions so  long  as  there  is  a  legitimate  purpose  for 
the  things  shown  and  no  tendency  to  encourage 
the  lowering  of  moral  standards.  However,  as 
stated  at  the  outset,  each  picture  is  judged  on  its 
own  merits,  and  it  is  therefore  impossible  to 
define  rigid  standards." 


Houston,  Texas 

City  Hall.     Mrs.  Thomas  H.  Eggert,  secretary. 

Ordinance  passed  December,  1919  outlines  stand- 
ards under  which  Board  operates.  In  part  the 
Ordinance  reads:  (The)  Secretary  shall  ascertain 
if  any  entertainment,  show  or  motion  picture  is 
being  exhibited  which  has  been  condemned  by  the 


Board  of  Censors  as  being  obscene,  indecent  or 
immoral,  or  as  calculated  to  promote  or  encour- 
age racial  or  sectional  prejudice,  indecency  or  im- 
morality, or  for  which  a  permit  has  not  been  is- 
sued, and  in  case  the  Secretary  shall  find  any 
such  picture  being  shown  or  entertainment  given, 
the  manager  or  other  person  in  charge  shall  be 
notified  to  stop  the  exhibition  of  such  picture  or 
the  giving  of  said  entertainment.  The  Secretary 
shall  report  all  violations  of  this  article  to  the 
Board  of  Censors. 

City  Hall.  Board  of  Review:  C.  V.  Cowan,  F. 
M.  Chapin. 

Operates  chiefly  under  terms  of  ordinance  No 
1970  which  in  part  says:  Section  6.  The  Board  shall 
issue  a  permit  for  the  showing  of  each  picture 
which  in  the  judgment  and  discretion  of  the  Board 
is  of  a  moral,  educational  or  amusing  and  harmless 
character,  and  shall  deny  a  permit  for  the  show- 
ing of  any  picture  which  in  the  judgment  and 
discretion  of  the  Board  is  immoral,  obscene,  inde- 
cent, licentious  or  improper. 

C.  V.  Cowan  of  the  Board  says  that  the  14 
Points  drafted  by  Jesse  L.  Lasky  "are  largely 
engrafted  into  the  rules  by  which  the  Board  is 
controlled." 

Dallas 

The  Secretary  of  the  Board  says:  "After  the 
experience  of  long  continued  service  in  the  work, 
we  are  unanimously  of  the  opinion  that  set  stai  d- 
ards  do  not  prove  as  practical  in  censorship  as  the 
method  of  treating  each  and  every  questionable 
film  with  individual  consideration."

Milwaukee,  Wis. 

The  Motion  Picture  Commission,  consisting  of 
nine  members  appointed  by  the  Mayor  of  the 
city  acts  as  the  Local  Censor  Board.  The  ad- 
dress of  such  board  is  City  Hall,  and  in  addition 
to  the  nine  members,  the  board  has  16  aides  and 
these  aides  are  increased  in  accordance  with  the 
number  of  theaters.  Aides  are  appointed  by  the 
President  of  the  Commission.  This  Commission 
is  not  regulated  by  any  ordinances;  that  the  ap- 
pointments by  the  Mayor  are  approved  by  the 
Common  Council. 

The  Commission  is  guided  mostly  by  the  stand- 
ards and  judgment  of  the  National  Board  of 
Review;  exception  in  such  cases  where  the  Com- 
mission feels  that  special  action  is  necessary  and 
also  in  such  cases  where  the  matter  is  left  by 
the  National  Board  to  the  Local  Board  for  their 
consideration. 

The  Commission  docs  not  make  public  any  of 
the  reviews,  but  reports  to  the  Common  Council 
the  cut-outs,  without  naming  the  producer  or  pic- 
ture involved.  All  pictures  are  reviewed  imme- 
diately upon  the  first  showing  and  it  is  the  duty 
of  the  members  and  aids  to  visit  certain  theaters 
each  week.  The  expenses  of  this  Commission  are 
borne  by  the  city,  as  provided  for  by  budget. 
The  only  paid  member  of  the  Board  is  the  execu- 
tive secretary  and  a  stenographer.  The  following

The  Board  and  its  inspectors  shall  refuse  to  ap- 
prove any  film  which  : 

Shows  anything  of  an  obscen;-,  indecent  or  im- 
moral nature. 

Presents  any  gruesome,  revolting  or  disgusting 
scenes  or  subjects. 

Tends  to  disturb  the  public  pe,r  e,  or 

Tends  to  corrupt  public  morals 

The   General    Object   of  Censorship 

The  endeavor  will  be  to  establish  standards 
on  progressive  lines  and  to  keep  motion  pictures, 
as  far  as  possible,  within  the  b^jt  interpretation 
of  the  City  Ordinance  and  the  demands  of  public 
opinion.  This  in  effect  will  be  to  restrict  to  such 
as  promise  interesting,  educational  events,  scenes 
or  subjects;  pictures  that  afford  clean,  whole- 
some, harmless  amusement  and  will  portray  drama 
and  will  aim  to  eliminate  that  which  debases  morals, 
or  teaches  improper  adventures  through  suggestion 
or  tends  to  incite  the  mind  to  acts  of  immorality 
or  crime  or  presents  false  standards  for  chai 
acter  and  conduct  or  shatters  the  better  ideas  of  our 
educational,  civic  and  national  life.  When  scenes 
of  vice  are  necessary  to  the  story,  they  will  be 
required  to  be  truthful  and  compete,  and  portrayed 
in  such  a  manner  that  no  one  would  be  led  to 
similar  adventure,  but  would  see  the  sordidness 
and  commercialism  on  which  these  scenes  rest. 

Article  1.  Shows  anything  of  an  indecent,  ob- 
scene or  immoral  nature. 

Obscenity,  immorality  or  indecency  must  be  eli- 
miated.  Actions  by  characters  or  situations  of 
a  decidedly  suggestive  nature,  appealing  to  low 
morals,  or  scenes  that  would  familiarize  and  ac 
custom  the  minds  of  young  people  with  the  same, 
must  be  eliminated. 

(Same    Scenes   in    Detail)  Eliminate 

1.  Suggestive   subtites   where   they   refer   to  the 
passions  or  implied  immoral  situations. 

2.  Scenes  of  the  nude  on  walls  or  pictures  of  the 
same  where  used  for  suggestion. 

3.  Where  there  is  an  attempt  to  be  vulgar, 
shorten  to  a  flash  scenes  of  girls  in  cabarets, 
ballet  dancers,  dressing  room  scenes,  bed  room 
scenes  in  night  clothes,  or  similar  scenes. 

4.  Peering  through  the  keyhole  at  man  or  woman 
undressed  or  undressing. 

5.  Raising  of  women's  skirts  by  men,  or  by  the

6.  Loose  pants  or  skirts  not  properly  fastened, 
or  ready  to  fall.  All  indecent  displaying  or 
fondling   of   underclothes,   or   night  clothes. 

7.  Close  up  views  of  men  or  women,  in  the  nude, 
swimming  just  under  the  water.  Nude  persons 
in  bath  tubs  unless  scene  merely  shows  the 
head. 

8.  Suggestive  rolling  on  women  in  slap-stick, 
and  other  farces  and  comedies. 

9.  The  act  of  a  woman  sitting  on  a  man,  even 
though  party  is  dressed  as  a  man.  when  act  is 
vulgar  or  has  a  vulgar  significance. 

10.  Excessive  and  suggestive  wriggling  of  the 
body  whether  of  a  man  or  a  woman. 

11.  Suggestive  placing  of  legs  over  the  knees  of 
women  or  suggestive  actions  while  a  woman 
sits  on  a  man's  lap  or  vice-versa. 

12.  Girls  putting  their  hands  in  men's  trouser 
pockets. 

13.  Making  comedy  of  women's  busts,  hips  or 
legs. 

14.  Scenes  where  men  take  hold  of  women's  ankles 
or  legs,  with  a  leer,  or  when  men  are  looking 
lustfully  at  woman's  form  in  a  way  to  attract 
attention  to  display  of  person. 

15.  Man  or  woman  or  persons  of  opposite  sex  in 
bed  together. 

16.  All  suggestive  actions  or  looks  at  statues 
or  the  draping  of  the  same. 

17.  The  close  up  views  of  dead  people  or  the 
treatment  of  wounds. 

IS.  Spitting  in  another's  face. 

19.  Views  of  characters  in  one  piece  bathing  suits, 
where  obviously  used  for  suggestive  purposes 
of  simply  to  display  the  figure,  should  be  con- 
demned. Excessively  short  skirts  for  the  pur- 
pose of  displaying  the  legs,  or  gowns  cut  low 
for  suggestive  purposes  must  be  eliminate'! 
Frank  exposure  of  the  person  may  be  less  ob- 
jectionable  than   partial  exposure. 


Article  2.  Presents  any  gruesome,  revolting  or 
disgusting  scenes  or  subjects. 

Insane  characters,  portrayed  in  such  manner 
as  to  harass  the  emotions  and  influence  even  nor- 
mal people,  should  be  eliminated. 

Scenes  of  crimes,  of  violence  against  persons  and 
animals,  ELIMINATE: 

1.  Torture  scenes,  exhibition  of  murder,  assassi- 
nations, hangings  or  other  executions. 

2.  Close  up  views  of  horrid,  bruised  or  mutilated 
faces,  or  faces  showing  agony  or  great  suf- 
fering. 

3.  The  struggles  of  drowning  people,  and  the 
close  up  views  of  dead  people's  faces  floating 
in  the  water. 

4.  Struggle  and  choking  scenes  when  carried 
to  the  point  of  extreme  brutality. 

5.  Branding  of  people  or  animals  in  close  up 
views. 

Article  3.    Tends  to   disturb  the  public  peace. 

Reverence  in  general  and  all  sacred  forces  should 
be  carefully  respected. 

Pictures  which  in  effect  as  a  whole  or  in  part, 
hold  up  to  ridicule  any  religious  act,  sacred 
thing  or  rite,  should  not  be  passed,  or  if  passed, 
all  objectional  scenes  should  be  eliminated.  This 
also  applies  to  scenes  that  portray  in  an  objec- 
tional manner,  any  race  of  people  or  characteristic. 

Although  there  is  quite  a  uniformity  of  ideals 
in  American  national  life — political  and  social — 
yet  there  is  always  some  local,  recognized  coloring 
or  prejudice. 

It  is  possible  that  these  differences  might  have 
undue  emphasis  or  in  case  of  national  differences, 
the  treatment  might  become  libelous. 

In  such  instances,  the  portrayal  must  be  con- 
sidered as  subject  to  censorship,  must  be  inter- 
preted with  due  regard  to  any  sectional,  national 
or  class  prejudice,  regardless  of  any  bias  or  taste 
of  a  viewer. 

Disrespect  for  law  or  public  officers,  enforcing 
same,  whether  in  action,  subtitle  or  suggestion, 
must  be  eliminated.  This  would  involve  ridicule 
of  law  enforcement  or  burlesque  of  an  apparent 
miscarriage  of  justice. 

Lengthy  portrayal  of  riot  scenes  should  be 
shortened  to  mere  fact  or  event  of  current  news. 

Article  4.  Tends  to  corrupt  the  public  morals. 
Crimes  Against  Property  or  Person 

The  fact  that  the  motion  picture  h  more  vivid 
than  the  printed  page  naturally  alters  the  question 
of  how  much  detail  can  be  shown  the  public.  For 
instance,  a  printed  description  of  a  burglary  or 
other  crime,  suffering  gruesomeness  and  evil  doing, 
has  not  the  same  effeet  upon  people  as  when  the 
very  act  is  performed  before  the  eves.  Undue 
and  lengthy  detail  of  the  above  crimes  should  be 
eliminated. 

Suicide  is  so  irreparable  a  crime  and  becomes  so 
suggestive  to  some  people,  that  actual  scenes  and 
methods  must  be  eliminated. 

Suggestive,  instructive  and  ingenious  criminal 
methods  must  not  be  exploited  and  if  introduced 
must  be  eliminated. 

ELIMINATE: 

1.  The  cutting  of  a  purse  from  a  woman's  arm 
or  showing  how  to  open  and  extract  money 
or  valuables  from  a  purse. 

2.  The  tampering  with  or  opening  of  doors  or 
windows  or  safes  by  using  tools  or  instruments. 

3.  The  cutting  of  telephone  or  telegraph  wires 
when  done  with  criminal  intent. 

4.  Tampering  with  railroad  ties  or  rails  for  the 
purpose  of  wrecking  trains. 

5.  Placing  of  funnels  or  tubes  with  bulbs  at- 
tached in  key  holes,  for  the  purpose  of  sending 
fumes  or  medicine  into  a  room  to  produce 
asphyxiation  or  acute  sickness. 

6.  Actual  chloroforming  of  persons,  that  is  the 
detail  of  using  the  chloroform,  or  the  act  of 
using  or  displaying  a  hypodermic  needle  in  any 
suggestive  manner  for  crime. 

7.  All  subtitles  or  scenes,  where  it  is  implied  that 
a  woman  is  in  a  delicate  condition  and  is  con- 
tcmplating^  or  planning  to  or  does  visit  a 
doctor  for  purpose  of  operation. 

8.  When  done  with  criminal  intent,  the  setting 
and  lighting  of  bombs  where  it  is  done  for  the 
purpose  of  destroying  of  property. 

9.  The   exhibition    of   methods   of   using  poison.

drugs,  knockout  drops  and  sleeping  powders. 
Also  the  snuffing  of  cocaine  or  other  drugs 
smoking  of  opium,  etc. 

10.  Effects  of  habit-forming  drugs,  unless  por- 
trayed   in   a   serious    educational  manner. 

11.  The  detail  of  obtaining  such  drugs  by  easy 
methods. 

12.  The  presentation  of  names  of  habit-forming 
drugs,  either  on  labels  of  bottles  or  by  sub- 
titles. 

13.  Arson  in  any  of  its  various  forms,  throwing 
the  oil,  gasoline,  etc.,  lighting  of  waste  or  pa- 
per to  set  a  fire. 

14.  All  scenes  of  exchanging  money,  as  if  in  pay- 
ment for  a  girl. 

15.  All  scenes  depicting  blackmail. 

16.  Gambling  scenes  that  are  introduced  merely 
for  entertainment,  or  that  show  in  elaborate 
and  instructive  detail  the  paraphernalia  and 
methods  oi  gambling.  These  are  always  ques- 
tionable and  should  be  eliminated.  It  should 
be  kept  in  mind  that  gambling  is  illegal,  and 
like  other  crimes,  should  be  chosen  to  be  shown 
only  when  essential  to  the  story  and  without 
detail. 

17.  Bar  rooms  scenes  which  show  any  incident  of 
an  obscene,  indecent  or  immoral  nature,  or  any- 
thing gruesome,  revolting  or  disgusting  should 
be  eliminated,  but,  if  such  scenes  are  not  of 
undue  length  and  do  not  predominate,  they 
should  be  approved.  Such  scenes  should  have 
a  significance  in  the  story. 

18.  Views  of  characters  in  one  piece  bathing  suits, 
where  obviously  used  for  suggestive  purposes 
or  simply  to  display  the  figure  should  be 
condemned.  Excessively  short  skirts  for  the 
purpose  of  displaying  the  legs,  or  gowns  cut 
low  for  suggestive  purposes  must  be  elimi- 
nated. Frank  exposure  of  the  person  may  be 
less  objectionable  than  partial  exposure. 

19.  Prolonged  love  scenes  should  be  treated  truth- 
fully and  not  lengthened  and  cheapened  to  the 
extent  of  losing  their  significance;  such  as 
kissing  on  back,  arms  or  neck,  or  fondling 
women  in  a  sensuous  manner. 

20.  Pictures  that  cast  discredit  on  the  marriage 
vow,  or  comedies  that  emphasize  loose  rela- 
tions ,are  immoral  and  either  should  be  con- 
demned or  the  objectionable  parts  eliminated. 

Problems  of  sex  should  be  treated  with  serious- 
ness and  reserve. 

Sexual  degeneracy,  based  on  the  antics  of  a 
pervert,  or  any  picture  involving  degeneracy  as  a 
theme,  must  be  condemned  altogether.

Standards  of  Virginia  State  Board  of 
Censors,  215  East  Grace  St.  Richmond 

The  Board  personnel :  Evan  R.  Chesterman, 
Chairman;  Emma  Speed  Sampson,  Vice-Chairman 
and  Secretary;  R.  C.  L.  Moncure. 

A  statement  from  Chairman  E.  R.  Chesterman. 
Possibly  we  may  never  attempt  to  put  our  stand- 
ards into  concrete,  inelastic  form,  since  we  prefer 
to  judge  each  film  on  its  own  merits.  Then  too, 
we  prefer  to  consider  each  picture  as  an  entirety, 
though  it  goes  without  saying  that  we  scrutinize 
questionable  scenes  and  often  order  their  elimina- 
tion. But  after  all,  a  wholesome  moral  lesson 
can  offset  the  effect  of  many  scenes,  which,  if 
seen  in  another  connection,  would  be  decidedly 
objectionable. 

"I  should  say  that  our  present  working  standards 
are  based  on  the  language  of  the  statute  under 
which  we  are  operating.  We  bar  every  motion 
picture  or  scene  thereof  which  in  our  opinion  may 
be  classified  as  "obscene,  indecent,  immoral  or 
inhuman,  or  which  is  of  such  character  that  its 
exhibition  would  tend  to  corrupt  morals  or  incite 
to  crime." 

REJECTIONS

Corp.,  and  "Picking  Peaches,"  a  two  reel  comedy

Seattle,  Wash. 

The  Municipal  Board  of  Cencors  can  be  reached 
by  addressing  Mary  Green  Lewis,  Secy.,  County- 
City  Bldg.,  Seattle. 

The  Board  of  Censors  is  composed  of  15  mem- 
bers and  up  to  the  present  time  has  been  co- 
operating with  the  theater  and  exchange  men. 
previewing    and    cutting    an    occasional  picture. 

A  new  ordinance,  similar  to  the  ones  in  use 
in  Pennsylvania,  and  in  Portland,  Oregon,  was 
prepared  by  one  of  the  members  of  the  Board, 
who  proposed  to  submit  it  to  the  City  Council, 
having  already  secured  the  approval  of  the  Mayor. 
This  proposed  ordinance  was,  however,  disap- 
proved both  by  the  committee  on  Public  Moral* 
and  by  the  Washington  State  Better  Film  Asso- 
ciation and  was  killed  before  it  reached  the  City 
Council. 

The  Censor  Board  does  not  make  public  its 
rejections. 

This  ordinance  was  first  passed  April  4,  1921, 
which  gave  authority  for  nine  members  and  was 
amended  April  2,  1923  to  15  members.  They  are 
all  appointed  by  the  mayor  and  their  term  of 
office  is  subject  to  the  pleasure  of  the  mayor. 

The  action  of  the  censorship  board  is  final  except 
that  an  appeal  could  be  made  to  the  mayor.  Since 
mayor  Brown  was  re-elected  this  last  re-election 
there  have  been  some  resignations  on  the  board 
and  nine  new  members  have  been  appointed.  The 
above  list  includes  the  new  members  as  the  board 
stands  at  the  present  time.  They  also  have  juris- 
diction over  dance  halls,  penny  parlors  and  all 
places  of  amusement.

WORCESTER,  MASS. 

Thomas   McMurray,    Deputy   Chief   of  Police 

The  Censor  Board  in  this  city  is  a  voluntary 
organization  composed  of  about  35  members  who 
are  representatives  of  the  vaiious  clubs  and  wel- 
fare organizations  in  the  city. 

There  is  no  set  standard,  each  picture  being 
judged  by  itself  alone,  the  only  consideration  being 
whether  it  would  in  any  way  prejudice  the  wel- 
fare or  morals  of  the  community.  This  is  de- 
cided, after  a  view  and  a  discussion  by  vote,  and 
the  decision  of  the  Board  is  accepted  as  final. 


Standards  of  the  Ontario  (Can.)  Board 
of  Censors,  45  Richmond  St.,  W., 
Toronto 

No  picture  will  be  allowed  which  shows  a  suc- 
cessful balking  of  the  law. 

The  board  will  use  judgment  in  eliminating  un- 
warranted display  of  foreign  flags,  and  will  also 
call  for  a  respectful  presentation  of  all  British 
flags. 

All  pictures  showing  animals  being  treated  un- 
kindly, tortured  or  killed  will  be  condemned. 

Pictures  which  deal  with  firearms  or  display  of 
knives  or  guns  may  be  eliminated  or  cut. 

Shocking  and  unnecessary  details  of  deeds  of 
violence  and  struggle  scenes  will  be  cut  out.  This 
also  applies  to  the  rough  handling  of  women,  chil- 
dren, the  aged  or  infirm,  and  close-up  views  of 
horrid,  bruised,  or  mutilated  faces,  or  faces  show- 
ing agony  and  suffering;  also  the  struggles  of 
drowning  people  and  close-up  views  of  dead  peo- 
ple's faces  floating  in  the  water. 

Constructive  suggestions  wheh  might  be  con- 
ducive to  producing  lawlessness  or  crime,  e.  g., 
methods  of  safe  cracking,  picking  locks,  raising 
cheques,   robbing  houses,   molesting   persons,  etc. 

In  no  instances  will  suicide  or  incentives  to 
such  be  shown. 

Close-up  scenes,  prolonged  or  instructive  scenes 
of  murder,  or  showing  of  executions  will  not  be 
allowed. 

Each  question  of  costume  or  taste  must  be 
considered  on  the  basis  of  morals.  Pictures  of 
when  almost  wholly  dressed,  but  displaying  a 
lavish  amount  of  lingerie,  are  startling.  The  same 
is  true  of  excessively  low-cut  gowns.  Under  no 
consideration  will  the  board  pass  any  pictures  con- 
taining incidentally  or  extensively  the  nude  form. 

Burlesque  or  scenes  of  ridicule  of  clergy,  Sal- 
vation Army  or  any  other  religious  work  will  be 
eliminated. 

All  pictures  must  be  kept  clean  from  sugges- 
tion, vulgarity  and  profanity. 

Scenes  in  houses  of  ill-repute  and  scenes  of  de- 
bauches will  be  cut  out,  also  any  instructive  de- 
tails of  gambling,  etc.,  will  be  eliminated.  Undue 
and  unnecessary  drinking  scenes  will  be  eliminated. 

Fifty  per  cent  of  all  serials  must  be  shown  at 
one  sitting. 

The  board  will  insist  that  sex  problems  be  treat- 
ed with  seriousness  and  reserve. 

Constructive  suggestions  of  the  use  or  means  of 
illegitimately  procuring  habit-forming  drugs,  nar- 
cotics, ,-oisons,  etc.,  will  be  eliminated. 

Instructions  prohibit  the  display  of  any  adver- 
tising which  shows  scenes  of  violence,  display  of 
guns  or  knives  indicating  shooting  or  stabbing, 
nudity,  vulgar  display  of  women's  forms,  objec- 
tionable titles  regarding  sex  relations,  or  any 
eliminations  that  have  been  made  by  the  board. 


Standards  of  Censors  for  Quebec.  63  St. 
Gabriel  St.,  Montreal. 

Sex  shall  be  prohibited ;  all  suggestive  and  im- 
moral scenes,  those  dealing  with  exaggerated  sex 
appeals  or  exploiting  interest  in  sex  in  an  improper 
or  suggestive  form  or  manner,  such  as:  rape  or 
attempt  of  rape,  adultery,  double  life,  free  love, 
infidelity,  commerce  of  vice,  auction  of  girls, 
white  slavery,  scenes  representing  nude  women  or 
men,  women  in  suggestive  dresses  or  positions, 
close-up  views  of  bathing  girls  in  one-piece  suits; 
particularly  suggestive  bedroom,  bathroom  and 
dance  scenes ;  views  prolonging  unnecessary  ex- 
pression of  passionate  love. 


Religion  shall  be  prohibited;  mock  marriages, 
burlesquing  on  any  religion,  ridiculing  clergy  of 
any  creed  or  placing  same  in  a  compromising 
position  and  generally  all  which  offends  the  reli- 
gious belief  or  creed  of  any  person. 

Places  of  Vice  shall  be  prohibited;  all  picturei 
concerned  with  the  underworld  places  of  vice  and 
crime,  opium  dens  showing  men  and  women  in 
degrading  conditions.  .  . 

Crime  and  crime  teaching  shall  be  prohibited ; 
scenes  showing  the  use  and  traffic  of  poison  and 
narcotics  and  other  unnatura  lpractices  against 
social  morality;  stories  and  scenes  which  may  be 
considered  as  real  schools  of  crime  in  instructing 
tne  morally  feeble  in  methods  of  committing  crime, 
entering  the  houses,  forcing  locks,  blowing  safes; 
pictures  showing  murders,  unnecessary  details  of 
violence  and  roughness  with  use  of  dynamite  for 
criminal  purposes;  all  things  which  are  shown  too 
often  in  some  "Western"  pictures  and  which 
might  be  an  incitive  to  imitation  ;  all  brutal  fights 
aboard  ships;  burglaries,  thefts,  forgeries,  stealing, 
cheating  at  cards  or  at  any  other  game. 

Cruelty,  executions  or  violence  to  women  and 
children,  and  brutalities  to  animals  must  not  be 
allowed,  nor  death  scenes  that  are  gruesome  or 
depicturing  tortures  or  extreme  sufferings,  nor 
scenes  of  execution  in  which  are  shown  scaffolds, 
electric   chairs,  guillotine. 

Divorce:  fostering  or  showing  of  divorce  as 
means  of  dissolving  marriage  bonds  must  not  be 
allowed  in  this  Province,  nor  any  suicide. 

Patriotism  shall  be  prohibited ;  all  scenes  in- 
jurious to  Canadian  and  to  any  other  race  pride  or 
patriotism  and  to  the  loyalty  to  the  King. 

Owing  to  the  mixed  population  of  the  Province 
of  Quebec,  special  care  must  be  given  to  the 
question  of  nationality,  religious  belief  and  general 
customs. 

Serials:  fifty  per  cent  of  all  serials  shall  be 
shown  at  one  sitting  so  that  the  Board  may  form 
an  idea  of  the  story  to  follow  in  subsequent  epi- 
sodes. 

Comedies:  a  certain  leniency  will  be  recommend- 
ed as  to  the  application  of  the  above  Standard  in 
the  examination  of  comedies.  They  will  be  left  to 
the  Censor's  own  judgment. 

Titles:  all  titles  and  sub-titles  advertising  the 
scenes  prohibited  above  shall  be  rejected.

OBJECTIONABLE  CHARACTERISTICS  AS 
PRESCRIBED  BY  ACT  OF  PARLIAMENT 

No  film  shall  be  registered  which,  in  the 
opinion  of  the  censorship — 

a — is  blasphemous,  indecent  or  obscene : 

b.  — is  likely  to  be  injurious  to  morality,  or  to 
encourage  or  incite  to  crime: 

c.  — is  likely  to  be  offensive  to  any  ally  of 
Great  Britain  or: 

d.  — depicts  any  matter  the  exhibition  of  which 
is  undesirable  in  the  public  interest. 

B 

OBJECTIONABLE    CHARACTERISTICS  AS 
DEFINED  BY  THE  COMMONWEALTH 
FILM  CENSORSHIP 

1.  — Indecent,  suggestive  or  insufficient  dress. 

2.  — Embraces  overstepping  the  limits  of  affec- 
tion, or  which  would  be  contrary  to  propriety  in 
ordinary  life. 

3.  — Nude  figures. 

4.  — Positions  of  the  actors  which  are  suggestive 
of  sexual  passion  or  desire. 

5.  — Scenes  which  might  be  offensive  to  the  re- 
ligious feeling  of  any  class  of  the  community. 

6.  — Scenes  which  might  be  thought  subversive 
to  morality  or  virtue. 

7.  — Scenes  which  might  be  morally  harmful,  to 
the  young  especially,  of  both  sex. 

8.  — Scenes  which  might  seem  to  encourage  or 
appear  to  view  which  indifference,  breaches  of  law, 
or  perpetration  of  crime. 

9.  — Scenes  of  brutal  cruelty  or  violence. 

10.  — Scenes  from  which  the  inference  could  be 
drawn  that  offences  against  those  laws,  or  rules, 
or  recognized  social  codes,  which  govern  the  re- 
lations of  the  sexes  in  married  and  single  life, 
are  matters  to  be  overlooked  or  treated  lightly.

Note:  The  following  notes  are  based  on  de- 
cisions during  the  past  three  years  and  are  in- 
tended merely  as  a  guide  to  future  requirements 
of  the  Censorship.  They  are  not,  in  any  par- 
ticular, to  be  regarded  as  precedents. 

1.  Nude  figures — The  nude  human  figure  is  not 
passed.  Moreover  the  suggestion — usually  by 
means  of  sub-titles  that  nudity  is  being  portrayed 
before  other  characters  in  the  film  is  also  ob- 
jected to.  Undraped  statues  are  not  eliminated 
unless  these  are  in  themselves  indecent,  and  u. 
hibit  something  more  than  mere  nudity. 

2.  Crimea — The  treatment  of  the  films  where 
the  whole  theme  deals  with  ordinary  underworld 
vice  or  crime  (thieving,  blackmailing,  gambling, 
ojium  dens)  depends  entirely  on  the  handling  of 
the  subjeect.  Retribution  in  some  form  is  neces- 
sary, and  it  should  be  adequate.  If  the  atmosphere 
of  a  crime  film  be  so  heavy,  cynical,  or  callous 
as  to  produce  an  overpowering,  cumulative  effect 
for  evil,  rejection  is  considered  necessary.  On 
the  other  hand  the  final  dominant  impression  left 
on  the  mind  by  some  "crime"  films  has  un- 
doubtedly been  good.  That  would  naturally  be 
the  case,  where  the  crime  has  not  been  too 
grossly  vicious,  and  extensive,  and  has  not  been 
excused  or  made  to  appear  justifiable. 

The  condonation  of  crime  or  vice  is  not  allowed. 
For  example,  the  Censorship  has  objected  to  a 
feature  where  several  people  conspired  success- 
fully to  defat  the  process  of  the  law  by  deceiving 
the  police  into  thinking  that  a  case  of  murder  (or 
manslaughter)  was  really  tht  suicide  of  the  dead 
man. 

Another  aspect  relates  especially  to  juveniles 
taking  the  law  into  their  own  hands.  The  censor- 
ship has  strongly  objected  to  a  young  boy  shoot- 
ing an  outlaw,  or  a  supposed  seducer. 

3.  Sexual  Crime — White  slavery,  free-love,  abor- 
tion or  extended  scenes  in  brothels  are  never 
passed.  Brothel  scenes,  if  very  brief  and  dis- 
creet, are  sometimes  passed.  Under  no  circum- 
stances is  a  woman  allowed  to  sell  her  virtue. 
The  role  of  prostitute  may  be  passed  if  delicately 
handled  and  incidental  to  the  main  theme. 

Erratic  embraces  are  usually  considered  ob- 
jectionable. Any  embrace,  struggle  or  pursuit 
having  for  its  object  the  man's  desire  to  seduce 
the  girl  is  always  cut  to  the  mere  flash,  and  some- 
times altogether  eliminated. 

The  general  theme  of  seduction  is  carefully 
considered.    It  must  be  delicately  handled. 

Adultery,  if  one  of  the  parties  is  married,  is 
rarely  allowed  to  be  portrayed — even  briefly.  If 
neither  is  married  the  scenes  showing  the  two 
actually  living  together  are  reduced  to  the  min- 
imum necessary  to  preserve  continuity.  Sub-title 
references  to  adultery  having  occurred  in  the  past 
are  usually  passed  providing  the  wording  is  not 
gross. 

Marital  infidelity  is  carefully  considered.  How- 
ever, considerable  latitude  is  allowed  in  "slap- 
stick" and  "broad"  (legitimate)  comedy.  In  the 
latter  case  it  is  considered  that  the  audience  thinks 
chiefly  of  the  humour  in  the  complicated  situa- 
tions which  arise,  and  pays  little  heed  to  the 
fact  that  the  relationship  between  the  actors  may 
occasionally  be  suggestive  of  irregularity.  How- 
ever, comedies  which  tend  to  sneer  at  or  seriously 
ridicule  the  established  conventions  regarding  mar- 
ried and  single  life  would  be  rejected.  Especially 
does  this  apply  to  stories,  humorous  or  serious, 
where  infidelity  or  immorality  is  "framed  up"  so 
as  improperly  to  secure  a  divorce  or  to  ruin  a 
person's  character  for  reasons  of  blackmail  or 
politics  ("Name  Upa"  or  theft  or  dishonesty  do 
not   come   under   this  category). 

4.  Slapstick  Comedies — A  considerable  amount 
of  latitude  is  allowed,  but  sub-title  inuendos  or 
bed-room  mix-ups  are  carefully  considered.  Gross 
vulgarities  and  suggestive  "jokes"  actions,  or 
postures  are  always  cut. 

5.  Brutality — Excessive  brutality  and  violence  is 
not  allowed,  especially  where  women  are  roughly 
treated  by  men  (i.  e.,  apart  from  any  motive  of 
immorality).  Fights  between  women  are  care- 
fully considered.  In  any  fight,  close-ups  of  fierce 
throttling,  unnecessary  vicious  and  inhuman  acts, 
blood-stained  faces,  and  wounds  are  generally  cut. 


In  other  words,  scenes  of  barbarity  are  not  per- 
mitted, nor  ghastly  exhibitions  of  physical  pain. 

6.  Exec;  ition  scenes — are  reduced  to  the  small- 
est possible  duration,  and  all  harrowing,  morbid 
or  gruesi  me  details  are  rigidly  excised.  This 
applies  n  t  only  to  the  scenes  immedi.il'  y  con- 
nected with  the  actual  execution  (whicn  itself 
is  always  cut),  but  also  to  preceding  scenes  in 
the  prisoner's  cell,  and  so  forth. 

7.  Shooting — -Excessive  shooting  and  indiscrim- 
inate fighting  (as  distinct  from  war  films)  reduced 
as  much  as  possible,  particularly  where  point- 
blank,  cold-blooded  killing  takes  place. 

8.  Drugs — Drug  incidents  are  allowed,  except 
that  the  actual  injection  by  hypodermic  syringe 
'or  the  name  of  any  poison  is  out.  Where  the 
'whole  story  centres  round  drug  habits,  the  film 
is  rejected,  unless  there  are  special  mitigating 
circumstances.  One  film  was  rejected  even  though 
it  showed  a  man  overcoming  the  drug  habit — be- 
cause of  the  vivid  depiction  of  the  attraction  of 
drugs,  which  might  suggest  the  habit  to  people 
who  had  not  previously  thought  of  it. 

9.  Medical  Propaganda — A  film  raising  any  dis- 
tinct medical,  disease,  or  sex-vice  issue  is  passed 
provided  that  the  censorship  is  convinced  that  the 
film  is  of  a  bona-fide  propaganda  nature.  It  is 
customary  to  impose  a  restriction  to  the  effect 
that  the  film  may  only  be  shown  in  such  States 
where  the  local  Board  of  Health  gives  its  ap- 
proval. Further,  it  is  sometimes  considered  neces- 
sary to  impose  an  age  limit,  usually  16,  at  ex- 
hibitions. 

10.  Sedition — Films  containing  any  matter  likely 
to  be  detrimental  to  the  British  Empire  in  a 
social,  political  or  national  sense  are  carefully 
considered. 

11.  Main  Titles — Are  altered  if  they  convey  any 
immoral  or  decidedly  suggestive  meaning.  The 
following  names  illustrate  the  position  : 

"Her  Purchase  Price" 
"His  Unmarried  Wife" 
"Her  Body  in  Bond" 
"All  A  Girl  Can  Give"

French  and  Italian  Standards 

In  "The  Morals  of  the  Movie"  Dr.  Oberholtzer, 
formerly  secretary  of  the  Penna.  State  Board  of 
Censors  says  (p.  107)  :  "Since  1916  France  has  had 
a  commission  of  five  members  to  examine  and  con- 
trol the  exhibition  of  film.  Unless  it  be  accom- 
panied by  a  certificate  which  they  have  issued 
no  picture  may  be  shown  in  any  theater  of  the 
country.  So  long  ago  as  in  1913  the  prefects 
of  the  departments  were  authorized  to  prohibit 
"les  representations,  par  les  cinematographes,  des 
crimes,  executions  capitales  et  d'une  facon  gen- 
erale  de  toutes  scenes  a  caractere  immoral  et 
scandaleux." 

In  Italy  all  pictures  must  be  licensed  before 
they  are  shown.  They  are  inspected  and  censored 
prior  to  certification  with  a  view  to  preventing 
the  exhibition — 

"(a)  Of  pictures  offending  against  morals,  good 
manners,  public  decency  and  private  persons. 

"(b)  Of  spectacles  injurious  to  the  national 
fame  and  self-respect,  or  against  the  public  order, 
or  likely  to  disturb  our  good  relations  with  foreign 
powers. 

"(c) Of  such  as  would  lessen  the  name  and 
fame  of  public  institutions  and  authorities,  or  of 
the  officers  and  agents  of  the  law. 

"(d)  Of  scenes  of  violence,  horror  and  cruelty, 
even  where  animals  rather  than  human  beings  are 
concerned,  or  of  crimes  and  suicides  realistically  re- 
produced; and  in  general  of  scenes  representing- 
perverse  actions  or  facts  which  would  be  incentive 
to  crime,  or  be  calculated  to  unsettle  the  mind  and 
provoke  to  evil." 

The  whole  subject  is  under  the  control  of  the 
Minister  of  the  Interior  in  Rome. 

In  Spain  likewise  the  screen  is  subject  to  legal 

regulation.   

Suggestions  for  India  Censors 

Censorship  suggestions  to  American  trade  for 
India,  made  by  Consul  General  A.  W.  Weddell, 
Calcutta : 

There  are  three  boards  of  censorship  in  India — 
at  Bombay,  Calcutta,  and  Rangoon — which  repre- 
sent the  educational,  religious,  political,  and  com- 
mercial organizations  of  those  cities.  The  charge 
for  censoring  a  picture  is  5  rupees  per  100  feet, 
and  the  picture  is  usually  viewed  by  one  paid 
official  before  its  public  exhibition. 

From  interviews  with  the  various  operators  in 
Calcutta,  the  following  suggestions  are  made  a: 
to  producing  and  exporting  American  films  to 
India:  (1)  A  reduction  in  price  by  the  manu- 
facturers for  exhibition  rights  in  India,  (2)  more 
caution  as  to  the  nature  of  the  film  sent  to 
India,  (3)  more  attention  to  detail  in  films  depict- 
ing Indian  life,  (4)  establishment  of  an  American 
agency  in  India  for  the  distribution  of  films  and 
general  management  of  the  trade. 


FOREIGN    CENSORSHIP  REGULATIONS 
Belgium 

Films  shown  in  Belgium  must  pass  a  censorship 
board  before  passing  before  the  public.  Children 
under  16  years  of  age  cannot  be  admitted  to  see 
films  that  have  not  received  the  approval  of  the 


board  of  censorship.  This  censorship  has  for  pur- 
pose to  prevent  films  showing  crimes  or  incidents 
that  might  suggest  crime  from  being  shown  to 
children.  Immorality  is  considered  of  less  im- 
portance than  crime,  and  counts  for  only  50 
per  cent  in  the  board's  decision. 

Bulgaria 

While  it  is  believed  that  sensational  films  are 
the  most  popular  in  Bulgaria,  several  recent  pro- 
hibitions of  the  Ministry  of  Education  make  the 
future  of  such  films  in  Bulgaria  somewhat  doubt- 
ful. It  is  claimed  by  the  authorities  that  they 
exert  a  bad  influence  upon  certain  classes  of 
the  population  who  are  inclined  to  emulate  the 
feats  which  they  witness  on  the  screen.  The  cen- 
sorship in  such  cases  appears  to  be  carried  much 
too  far,  especially  in  the  case  of  American  films, 
and  an  effort  is  now  being  made  to  have  several 
films  re-instated  which  have  already  been  pro- 
hibited. 

Brazil  (Sao  Paulo) 

There  is  a  rigid  censorship  of  motion  pictures  by 
the  police  authorities  of  Sao  Paulo  and  no  film 
can  be  exhibited  without  the  approval  of  the 
police  authorities. 

Irish  Free  State 

Under  the  provisions  of  the  Censorship  of  Films 
Bill,  1923,  passed  by  Dail  Eireann  on  May  28, 
1923,  to  become  operative  six  months  after  that 
date,  all  motion  pictures  and  other  "efforts  pro- 
duced by  means  of  cinematograph  or  other  similar 
apparatus"  must  be  officiallly  censored  and  passed 
before  being  exhibited  in  the  Irish  Free  State,  re- 
ports Vice  Consul  Harold  M.  Collins,  Dublin. 
Palestine 

All  films  ,due  to  the  religious  character  of 
the  country  and  especially  those  likely  to  foment 
possible  trouble  amongst  the  populace,  are  cen- 
sored by  a  representative  of  the  Moslem,  Jewish 
and  Christian  communities  and  by  the  police. 

Poland 

Censorship  of  all  films  is  compulsory.  The  Na- 
tional Board  of  Censorship  is  located  at  the  Press 
Bureau  of  the  Ministry  of  the  Interior,  Nowy 
Swiat  69,  Warsaw.  It  is  central  in  and  holds 
jurisdiction  over  all  Poland.  The  time  required 
for  censorship  varies  from  8  to  30  days. 

It  is  compulsory  that  titles  appear  in  the  Polish 
language.  In  case  of  bi-lingual  titles,  the  Polish 
title  must  precede.  The  conversion  of  a  foreign 
language  to  Polish  titles  can  readily  be  accom- 
plished in  Warsaw  at  a  nominal  cost. 

Moving  picture  films  tending  to  provoke  emi- 
gration agitation  fall  under  general  restrictions 
prohibiting  such  agitation.  The  showing  of  scenes 
in  the  United  States  incidental  to  current  events 
or  to  plot  development  would  not  normally  fall 
under  this  restriction  although  such  scenes  are 
eagerly  viewed. 

Roumania 

All  films  shown  in  this  country  are  required  to 
be  censored  bx  a  national  board  of  censors.  The 
customary  procedure  to  be  followed  for  the  pur- 
pose of  securing  authorization  for  the  exhibit 
of  films  is  to  deposit  the  films  to  be  exhibited 
at  the  Prefecture  of  Police  in  Bucharest,  with  a  full 
description  thereof  and  a  formal  application  for 
permission  to  exhibit  them,  which  should  con- 
tain a  declaration  replying  to  the  following  ques- 
tions : 

Does  the  film  contain  nudes? 
Is  the  good  or  bad  victorious? 
Are  the  bad  punished  for  their  sins? 
Is  the  film  directly  or  indirectly,  prejudicial  to 
the  existing  social  order? 

After  having  been  examined  and  censored,  if 
necessary,  by  one  of  the  five  members  of  the 
board  of  censors,  the  films  are  returned  to  the 
Prefecture  of  Police,  which  cuts  out  all  ob- 
jectionable parts  and  then  delivers  the  neoessary 
authorization  for  the  presentation  of  the  films. 
The  board  of  censors,  in  conjunction  with  the 
police  authorities,  does  not  permit  the  exhibition 
of  criminal  or  immoral  films  or  of  films  which 
are  prejudicial  to  the  interest  of  Roumania.  All 
titles  must  be  in  the  Roumanian  language.

Outlook  and  Resume 


MENACE  OF  BOOKING  COMBINATIONS 

I  am  extremely  opti- 
mistic over  the  outlook 
for  the  motion  picture 
business  in  1925.  In  the 
first  place,  the  best  ob- 
servers of  general  econo- 
mic conditions,  not  only 
in  this  country,  but 
throughout  the  world, 
have  almost  unanimously

particularly    is    this  ex- 

 '«aWmtV  |    pected    to    be    true,  as, 

with  the  elections  over, 
business  can  face  the  fu- 
ture   without  disturbing 


spell  prosperity  whether  or  not  the  gross  increase 
rises  over  former  years. — E.  V.  RICHARDS,  Vice- 
President  and  General  Manager,  Saenger  Amuse- 
ment Co.,  Inc.

political  factors. 

Given  sound  general  conditions,  the  picture 
industry  should  forge  ahead  to  even  greater  pros- 
perity than  it  has  ever  experienced  in  the  past. 
Pictures  are  better  today  than  they  were  a  year 
ago ;  they  will  be  better  next  year  than  they  have 
been  this.  The  public,  more  and  more,  is  coming 
to  appreciate  good  pictures,  and  th^s  appreciation 
is  reflected  in  the  attendance  at  theaters  playing 
the  better  class  of  productions. 

We  must  not,  however,  let  our  optimism  blind 
us  to  the  perils  of  practices  which  inherently  have 
the  means  of  blocking  this  progress.  Just  as 
exhibitors  have  been  encouraged  by  increasingly 
better  pictures  to  build  better  and  better  theaters, 
so  producers  must  be  encouraged  to  continue  pro- 
ducing better  pictures  by  assurances  that  their 
product  will  find  a  suitable  outlet  at  adequate  re- 
turns. 

By  this  I  mean  artificial  handicaps  to  progress, 
such  as  unnatural  booking  combinations,  are  dis- 
tinctly unhealthy.  They  are  bad  for  the  whole 
industry — bad,  naturally,  for  the  producer,  who 
will  be  prevented  from  obtaining  a  legitimate 
reward  for  his  effort  and  investment,  and  bad  for 
the  exhibitor,  because  his  prosperity  depends 
wholly  and  solely  on  the  continuing  high  quality 
of  the  productions  which  he  shows  his  local  public. 
This  high  quality  cannot  be  maintained  by  the 
producer  unless  his  rewards  on  his  pictures  en- 
rou-age  him  to  forge  forward  in  his  future  pro- 
ductions. 

But,  most  of  all,  the  economic  burden  of  book- 
ing combinatiins  falls  upon  the  small  exhibitor. 
It  is  he  who  will  be  obliged  to  make  up  whatever 
losses  the  booking  combinations  force  upon  the 
producer  and  distributor. 

This  present  tendency,  however,  is  one  which 
I  am  confident  will  be  solved  satisfactorily.  It 
will  be  solved  not  by  shortsighted  gentlemen  who 
are  satisfied  to  grasp  only  the  immediate  dollar, 
but  by  all  working  together  to  bring  about  the 
greatest  good  for  the  entire  industry.  Enlightened 
selfishness,  or,  in  other  words,  good  business  sense, 
will  cure  this  condition  which  is  about  the  only 
grave  one  now  facing  our  business. 


RICHARDS  OPTIMISTIC 

The  year  or  season  of  1924-1925,  in  my  opinion, 
is  to  be  one  of  general  prosperity. 

The  over-building  habit  has  let  up,  cost  of 
production  generally  sobered  down — where  circuits 
have  formed,  the  tendency  has  been  to  operate 
on  the  broader  scale.  The  "loan  sharks"  are 
not  as  prominent  as  in  former  years.  The  pro- 
ductions of  real  merit  have  generally  brought  a 
very  satisfactory  return.  Exhibitors  are  more  dis- 
criminating and  not  as  easy  to  be  led  into  "wild 
dreams"  (as  in  former  years)  and  the  Hays  unit 
is  gradually  bringing  some  reason  into  the  minds 
of  our  leaders. 

If  the  above  deductions  are  correct,   we  have 
a    better    systematized    business — more  conserva- 
tive than  ever  before,  and  the  net  of  such  should

ANTICIPATES  NO  BUSINESS  SLUMP 

1925  will  hold  excep- 
tional prosperity,  not  only 
for  the  film  industry,  but 
for  business  in  general 
There  has  been  a  gradua' 
adjustment  of  business 
onditions  since  the  war 
vhich  has  taken  care  oi 
he  problems  that  have 
irisen.  Sound  conserva- 
tive policy  has  helped  all 
ndustries  weather  the  per 
iod  of  stress.  The  re- 
sult is  that  the  motion 
picture  industry  particu 
larly  stands  solidly  on  it« 
feet  to  reap  the  harvest 
of  the  year  we  are  entering  on. 

With  the  prcsdential  election  over,  the  pros- 
perity that  every  business  will  share  in  1925 
has  already  begun  to  manifest  itself.  All  that 
is  necessary  to  learn  the  real  internal  state  o 
economic  prosperity  is  to  consider  the  phenomenal 
business  in  stocks.  Throughout  the  country,  the 
public  is  spending  money  more  freely  and  in  lar- 
ger quantities  than  in  several  years.  The  amuse- 
ment business,  particularly  the  film  industry,  will 
be  among  the  first  to  benefit.  I  am  confident 
there  will  be  no  slump. 

For  our  own  part,  Metro-Goldwyn  looks  for- 
ward to  the  most  successful  season  that  any  film 
organization  ever  enjoyed.  We  are  going  ahead 
with  plans  that  will  surpass  in  scope  anything 
before  attempted  in  the  industry.  The  start  of 
the  new  year  finds  two  splendid  Metro-Goldwyn 
pictures  in  Broadway  theaters  for  runs.  Lillian 
Gish  in  Henry  King's  Inspiration  production  of 
"Romola,"  with  Dorothy  Gish,  at  the  George 
M.  Cohan  Theater,  and  Erich  von  Strohenn's 
"Greed"  at  the  Cosmpolitan.  Shortly  after  1925 
has  dawned  we  will  have  another  great  production 
on  Broadway  in  "Ben  Hur,"  which  I  aim 
confident,  will  be  recognized  and  acclaimed  as 
the  finest,  as  well  as  the  most  elaborate  motion 
picture   that   has   been  made. 

Our  production  schedule  at  the  Culver  City 
studios  of  Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer  includes  such 
special  productions  as  "The  Merry  Widow,"  di- 
rected by  Erich  von  Stroheim  with  Mae  Murray 
and  John  Gilbert  heading  the  cast,  and  "The 
Great  Divide,"  recently  completed  by  Reginald 
Barker.  We  will  have  also  for  release  in  1925, 
among  other  big  features,  Rex  Ingram's  produc- 
tion of  "Mare  Nostrum,"  by  Blasco  Ibanez.  This 
production,  by  that  combination  which  made  "The 
Four  Horsemen  of  the  Apocalypse"  one  of  the 
biggest  successes  ever  known  to  the  industry,  we 
expect  to  be  Mr.  Ingram's  greatest  achieve- 
ment. 

From  this  it  will  be  evident  that  our  plans  for 
1925  are  on  a  tremendous  scale.  Under  the  super- 
vision of  Louis  B.  Mayer,  and  his  associates, 
Harry  Rapf  and  Irving  G.  Thalberg,  the  studio 
will  continue  to  surpass  its  big  achievements  al- 
ready, and  give  motion  picture  theaters  the  best 
box  office  product  in  the  business.  In  view  of 
what  our  company  has  already  accomplished  this 
season,  there  can  be  no  question  of  what  1925 
will  hold  for  exhibitors  in  the  way  of  Metro- 
Goldwyn  product. 

Our  own  activity  reflects  that  in  the  business 
as  a  whole.  It  is  for  the  business  as  a  whole, 
as  well  as  for  Metro-Goldwyn,  that  I  look  for 
a  year  of  fine  success.

AN  OPTIMIST 

Predicting  is  a  danger- 
ous business.  It  is  no 
wonder  that  prophets 
have  such  a  bad  name  in 
their  own  home  towns. 
But  predicting  what  is 
going  to  happen  in  a 
forthcoming  moving  pic- 
ture year  is  getting  easier 
because  it  is  founded  on 
more  facts  which  are  un- 
derstood by  the  people 
who  make  the  pictures. 

One  of  the  great  un- 
derlying factors  in  the 
prosperity  of  the  moving 
picture  business  is  the 
prosperity  of  the  people  of  the  United  States  and, 
in  fact,  of  the  world.  When  people  are  pros- 
perous, the  moving  picture  business  is  pros- 
perous. The  same  law  does  not  obtain  alto- 
gether in  regard  to  foreign  countries,  and  com- 
petition is  becoming  keener  and  keener  in  a  num- 
lier  of  these  countries   every  year. 

In  my  recent  rtip  abroad  I  made  a  careful 
analysis  of  working  conditions  as  they  respect 
moving  pictures,  and  it  is  my  prediction  that 
the  United  States  will  see  more  moving  pictures 
of  a  superior  character  made  by  foreign  direc- 
tor and  in  foreign  studios  this  year  than  ever 
before.  These  pictures  will  be  welcome.  In  the 
arts  this  country  still  has  a  great  deal  to  learn 
from  the  old  countries.  We  have  learned  a  great 
deal  already  and  this  knowledge  we  are  sending 
back  in  constantly  better  pictures. 

If  the  first  determining  factor  in  the  pros- 
perity of  moving  pictures  is  the  prosperity  of 
the  country  itself,  the  second  is  the  betterment 
of  the  product  which  the  moving  picture  com- 
panies are  turning  out.  I  have  made  it  my 
business  to  keep  as  thoroughly  fn  touch  with  the 
sentiments  of  this  country  about  pictures — others 
as  well  as  Universal's — as  possible.  Through 
this  as  well  as  personal  observation  I  know 
that  other  producers'  pictures  are  reaching  a 
higher  standard  as  well  as.  Universal's.  These 
better  pictures  are  also  raising  the  average  of 
critical  taste  on  the  part  of  movie  goers  and  this 
in  itself  is  one  of  the  most  encouraging  factors 
in  the  moving  pictures.  An  appreciation  of  this 
fact  determined  me  to  make  more  pictures  of  this 
quality  and  importance  last  year.  I  found  it  paid. 
For  the  coming  year  I  am  going  to  make  even 
more  of  them  and  I  have  taken  every  possible 
precaution  in  the  matter  of  stories,  directors, 
casts  and  technical  forces  to  insure  these  pictures 
being  of  superior  quality. 

I  have  no  fear  for  the  future  of  moving  pic- 
tures for  the  coming  year.  I  know  that  the 
demand  is  there,  and  that  the  company  that 
has  the  best  pictures  will  have  the  opportunity 
of  a  life  time  next  year,  with  political  problems, 
both  here  and  abroad  ,very  largely  settled ;  with 
business,  big  and  little,  confident  of  its  market 
and  of  financial  stability.  I  predict  an  extremely 
prosperous  season  for  moving  picture  producers 
and  for  moving  picture  exhibitors.  And  this 
prosperity  will  be  reflected  first  in  the  moving 
picture  theater  itself. 

1925  THE  YEAR  FOR  INDEPENDENTS 

In  my  estimation,  the 
outstanding  event  that 
presages  genuine  progress 
for  1925  is  Mr.  Joseph 
Schenck's  acceptance  of 
the  position  of  Chairman 
of  the  Board  of  Directors 
for  United  Artists. 

Here  is  a  union  of  in- 
dependent, creative  and 
artistic  brains  that  should 
serve  the  highest  interest 
of  all  links  in  this  in- 
dustry's chain. 

To      the  independent 
Samuel  Goldwyn        producer,  who  is  the  life 
blood  and  pace  maker  in  the  industry,  this  amalga- 
mation affords  a  new  fountain  of  inspiration. 


Greater  independent  production  offers  incen- 
tive and  stimulation  for  producer  and  artist  and 
definitely  assures  exhibitors  of  worth  while  product. 

1925  will  be  the  year  for  Independents! 


THERE  IS  A  LIMIT 

The  outlook  for  the  com- 
ing year  from,  within  the 
industry  is  no  different 
to  my  mind  from  what  it 
has  been  for  the  past  two 
or  three  years.  The  pros- 
perity of  the  business  de- 
pends upon  good  pictures, 
the  cost  to  all  concerned 
to  be  such  that  all 
branches  of  the  industry 
can  make  money,  and  I 
am  wondering  just  how 
much  further  we  can  go 
and  have  all  branches  of 
Harry  M.  Crandall       the  industry  make  money. 

The  production  end  seems 
to  be  running  wilder  this  year  than  ever  before, 
and  regardless  of  how  good  the  picture  may  be, 
there  still  is  a  limit  to  what  can  be  done  in  the 
box-office,  and  this  does  not  mean  only  the  box- 
office  in  the  big  towns  and  first-run  houses,  but 
the  box-office  in  the  little  towns  must  be  con- 
sidered. 

After  all,  where  will  the  exhibitor  get  off  if  the 
star  pictures  and  the  big  special  productions  do 
take  more  money  into  the  box-office,  if  the 
rental  charge  for  them  is  such  that  he  makes  less 
money  than  he  would  on  just  a  good  picture. 
That  time  as  fast  approaching,  and  when  it  ar- 
rives the  stars  are  going  to  suffer,  because  the 
exhibitor  just  will  not  use  them,  and  a  star  can 
only  be  made  popular  by  being  shown  on  the 
different  screens  of  the  country. 

The  general  outlook  for  the  coming  year  can 
be  expected  to  continue.

PICTURES  MUST  "GET  SOMEWHERE" 

The  releases  of  1924  have 
Sut  borne  out  my  predic- 
ion  that  the  biggest  suc- 
cesses of  the  year  would 
je  "theme"  photoplays 
itories  that  discuss  some- 
hing  more  basic,  more 
undamental  than  a  mere 
■eppermint  girl  and  but- 
erscotch  boy  romance. 

I  believe  that  1925  will 
>ut  show  an  extension  of 
this  tendency,  aided  by  the 
constant  development  of 
Cecil  B.  De  Mille  clever  technical  aids  for 
the  enhancing  of  dramatic  effects.  During  the 
last  year  we  found  producers  attempting  stories 
that  previously  they  could  not  have  done,  save 
for  the  new  inventions  and  processes  which  are 
constantly  making  our  art  more  vividly  pictorial. 
As  for  myself,  without  such  inventions,  such  pro- 
cesses, I  could  not  have  secured  the  "kick"  of  the 
Red  Sea  opening  in  "The  Ten  Commandments^' 
or  the  after  death  sequence  in  "Feet  of  Clay." 
Both  of  these  effects  made  it  possible  to  tack  a 
whiplash  on  the  end  of  a  simple,  dramatic  theme. 
Both  of  these  stories  were  romantic,  were  written 
to  be  entertaining,  but  when  boiled  down  there 
was  one  single  sentence  each  which  carried  home 
a  direct  message  to  thousands. 

My  own  experience  has  been  but  illustrative  of 
a  condition  which  has  been  driven  home  to  others 
with  equal  force.  The  public  will  no  longer  take 
productions  that  merely  tell  a  story.  They  must 
have  "meat."  They  must  get  somewhere.  They 
must  add  something  to  the  sum  total  of  human 
intelligence  and  understanding.  They  must  do  all 
this,  and  at  the  same  time  be  entertaining.  It  is 
a  large  order  but  it  is  one  producers  must  fill  who 
wish  to  operate  at  the  highest  plane  of  efficiency.

1925   A   RECORD  BREAKER 

Everything  points  to  a 
record  breaking  year  in 
1925.  We  are  already  in 
Philadelphia  finding  such 
public  response  to  our 
advertising  and  to  our  of- 
ferings as  to  inspire  great 
optimism  and  the  business 
at  our  various  theaters  is 
equal  to  that  in  any  similar 
period. 

The   season   is   of  much 
promise    with     respect  to 
pictures.     There  is  marked 
Jules  E.  Mastbaum  improvement  in  quality  and 

!t  is  apparent  that  directors  are  doing  better 
work  than  ever.  We  are  far  in  advance  of  Eu- 
rope. I  was  surprised  at  the  lack  of  initiative 
on  the  part  of  exhibitors  in  such  cities  as  Paris 
and  London.  They  show  our  pictures — -but  a 
year  and  a  half  late — and  it  is  really  a  sorry 
spectacle  that  is  presented  in  the  leading  cinema 
houses,  with  little  attention  paid  to  music  and 
with  the  comfort  of  patrons  almost  completely 
disregarded. 

There  is  not  much  to  suggest  to  American  pro- 
ducers. They  have  ears  close  to  the  ground  and 
they  are  making  the  kind  of  pictures  that  the 
people  want  to  see.  And  by  that  I  mean  that  the 
picture  output  is  in  every  way  superior.  All  that 
is  necessary  in  most  cases  is  showmanship  on  the 
part  of  the  exhibitors.  We  have  the  material — it 
is  up  to  us  to  use  it  judiciously.

NO  ONE  "ROCKING  THE  BOAT" 

Each  year  the  motion 
picture  industry  steadily 
strengthens  itself  to  great- 
er usefulness. 

The  first  era  of  pictures 
as  one  creative  experi- 
ment in  improving  drama- 
tic efforts.  What  we  might 
cai:  a  second  era  seems 
ch  iracteristic  in  the  Im- 
provement of  mechanical 
effects  contributing  to  the 
dramatic  effects.  During 
D.  W.  Griffith  the  immediate  future,  it 
would  seem  the  efforts  for  mechanical  advances 
will  be  less  than  the  efforts  for  greater  dramatic 
realism.  Censorship  seems  to  have  struck  a 
level  of  amiable  caution  rather  than  irritable 
scolding  and  interference.  In  the  relations  with 
the  exhibitors,  the  movement  seems  to  be  towards 
each  picture  seeling  upon  its  own  merits,  which 
of  course  is  the  only  logical  and  fair  way. 

Nothing  seems  to  threaten  an  assured  progres- 
siveness  'or  the  industry  during  the  next  twelve 
months;  all  of  which  really  means  that  no  one  is 
'rocking  the  boat'." 

ALL  RIGHT,  '26  ALSO 

I  think  that  1925  is  go- 
ing to  be  ALL  RIGHT, 
and  when  1926  rolls 
round,  I  believe  that  it 
will  be  all  right  too. 
This,  in  spite  of  some 
of  our  Industry  who  are 
still  in  their  infancy. 

I  find  double-cross  word 
puzzles  rather  interesting. 
Prohibition  is  better  than 
no  liquor  at  all.  Roth- 
acker  Prints  look  better, 
wear  longer  and  are 
Watterson  R.  Rothacker  cheaper  in  the  long  run. 

VALUE    OF    EXHIBITOR  ORGANIZATION 
PROVEN 

Just  what  the  outlook  for  the  coming  year  will 
be  rests  so  much  with  the  independent  theater 
owner,  that  it  is  hard  to  prophesy  what  will 
happen.      If    the    independent    exhibitor  awakens 


to  what  is  going  on  in  the  industry,  if  thru  his 
buying  power,  he  makes  use  of  this  knowledge, 
conditions  in  the  industry  should  be  for  both  ex- 
hibitor, producer  and  distributor,  very  very  good. 

If  the  next  year  sees  the  elimination  of  the 
elements  in  the  industry  that  are  basically 
wrong,  from  the  viewpoint  of  the  public,  (and 
after  all,  who  else  is  to  be  considered),  if 
every  element  of  the  industry  realizes  that  de- 
spite the  fact  that  both  the  exhibitor  and  the 
distributor  are  grossing  more  and  netting  less 
and  take  steps  to  eliminate  this  unhealthy  con- 
dition, the  next  year  should  be  one  of  marked 
progress. 

Block  booking  should  be  made  optional  but  not 
compulsory.  To  the  exhibitor  who,  as  a  good 
business  man  is  willing  to  take  the  time  to  at- 
tempt to  pick  the  pictures  he  thinks,  thru  experi- 
ence, his  audience  likes  should  be  made  available 
the  pictures  he  wants  and  is  willing  to  pay  a  little 
more  for.  To  the  exhibitor  who,  because  of  his 
location,  finds  that  he  can  and  must  buy  a  num- 
ber of  pictures  at  once  to  form  a  basis  for  his 
program  for  the  year  to  insure  his  future, 
competitively,  such  a  course  should  be  open.  But 
the  exhibitor  who  much  longer  attempts  to  sell  the 
public  something  that  he  himself  cannot  know 
about  or  which  is  only  a  brain  child  yet  to  be 
produced,  is  going  to  wonder  before  many  years, 
why  business  isn't  as  good  as  it  "uster  was." 

If  the  year  just  past  didn't  sell  the  exhibitors 
of  the  United  States  organization  then  it  can't 
be  done.  Organization  returned  to  them  and  the 
public  they  are  serving  35  million  dollars.  Next 
year  I  am  confident  will  see  the  abolishment  of 
paper  organizations  both  state  and  national  and 
will  see  the  first  national  organization  of  accom- 
plishes well  on  its  way. 

If  that  comes  drastic  changes  will  come  in 
contractual  relations  between  exhibitors  and  dis- 
tributor; will  see  many  money  saving  policies 
adopted,  will  see  the  industry  for  the  first  time 
giving  serious  heed  to  economy  and  its  necessity. 

If  the  coming  year  is  marked  by  the  same  prog- 
ress of  the  past,  no  one  can  be  disappointed  when 
1925  closes

ANOTHER  OPTIMIST 

Personally,  I  can  see  an- 
other year  of  prosperity 
ind  good  business.  I  am 
in  optimist.  The  signs  and 
ndications  from  every  part 
if  the  country  portend  a 
nore  favorable  condition  of 
reneral  business  than  any 
n  the  past  three  years.  All 
he  ordinary  barometers  of 
orecast  are  for  continued 
irosperity — money,  crops, 
abor  conditions,  etc. 

In  the  motion  picture 
H.  M.  Herman  business  we  have  just  as 
many  indications  of  continued  prosperity  as  in  all 
other  lines  of  activity.  The  theaters  are  all  re- 
porting good  patronage ;  producers  are  going 
ahead  and  are  not  curtailing  operations;  exhibi- 
tors are  open  for  all  good  product,  no  matter 
who  makes  it  or  sells  it,  and  all  along  the  line 
from  producer  to  exhibitor  we  see  no  indication 
of  a  recission  or  depression. 

SAME  OLD  CRY— BUT! 

In  my  opinion,  the  out- 
look for  the  coming  year 
is  the  same  as  it  has  been 
for  every  other  year. 
Each  year  at  this  time  we 
hear  the  cry  that  the 
small  concern  is  being 
forced  out  of  business  or 
being  swallowed  up — yet 
the  business  goes  right  on 
year  after  year. 

Of  course  the  small 
man  will  be  swallowed  up 
if  he  does  not  use  busi- 
ness principles — whether 
he  is  an  exhibitor,  state 
national  organization.

Among  the  national  organizations,  the  ones  who 
run  their  business  on  really  business  lines,  who 
do  not  put  unlimited  money  in  mediocre  produc- 
tions and  who  give  the  same  thought  to  their 
business  as  is  done  in  any  other  line  of  effort, 
will  survive.  The  ones  who  exploit  poor  product 
which  costs  many  times  what  it  is  worth  will  be 
swallowed  up,  this  has  been  going  on  for  years 
and  it  will  continue  to  go  on — there  is  a  constant 
influx  of  new  producers,  new  releasing  organiza- 
tions and  if  the  poor  ones  were  not  eliminated, 
tin-  business  would  be  in  a  very  bad  way  indeed. 

I  i  there  is  any  change  in  the  outlook  this  year 
from  other  years  it  is  in  the  outlook  for  a  better 
average  number  of  quality  in  pictures.  Last  year 
saw  a  number  of  very  large  successful  "Specials," 
nut  the  average  quality  was  not  as  high  as  it 
should  have  been — this  year  I  believe  will  see  a 
more  healthy  tone  in  this  respect. 


LESS  PICTURES  WANTED 

What  is  the  outlook  for 
1925?  What  are  the  pros- 
pects for  next  year?  The 
same  questions  are  asked 
at  the  end  of  each  year 
and  the  same  degree  of 
accuracy  in  predicting  what 
the  future  will  bring  forth 
seems  to  be  an  annual 
event. 

Should  the  question  rath- 
er not  be — what  has  been 
done    this    year    that  we 
should  not  do  next?  Where- 
Joe  Brandt         in  have  we  erred  and  what 
measure  of  correction  are  we  going  to  adopt  to 
correct  prevalent  evils  in  the  industry? 

The  thought  was  broadcasted  last  year,  di- 
rect from  the  public  "make  fewer  and  better 
pictures"  and  some  producers  were  honest  in 
their  endeavor  to  do  this  as  is  evidenced  by 
the  number  of  big  specials  that  were  made  and 
were  intended  for  long  runs.  But  the  same  policy 
of  "grind  'em  out"  defeated  the  intentions  of 
those  who  knew  and  wished  to  do  better. 

Not  a  few  of  the  big  pictures  that  should 
have  enjoyed  and  would  have  stood  up  for 
longer  runs  were  forced  out  of  first  run  houses 
because  the  producers  had  refused  to  work  in 
unison  on  the  idea  of  fewer  and  better  pic- 
tures. 

Again  this  season  it  is  not  a  question  of  how 
good  the  program  companies  should  make  their 
pictures  but  how  many  in  order  to  keep  down 
their  overhead — an  overhead  created  by  a  desire 
to  keep  from  their  competitors  stars  and  di- 
rectors and  writers. 

Instead  of  prophesying  as  to  what  the  new 
season  will  bring  forth,  why  not  put  the  picture 
industry  on  a  basis  where  the  supply  does  not 
exceed  the  demands.  Why  not  call  a  "Peace 
Conference"  of  the  producers  and  try  to  regu- 
late production  and  the  acquisition  of  stars 
and  directors  so  that  the  mounting  costs  will  be 
brought  down  to  a  commercial  basis  and  the  out- 
put worthy  of  the  effort  and  the  financial  expendi- 
ture involved? 

Who  cannot  look  back  upon  the  events  which 
have  transpired  during  the  past  year  and  say 
that  the  desire  exists  even  if  not  yet  accom- 
plished, to  merge  into  two  or  perhaps  three 
organizations,  the  strength  of  the  entire  industry 
from  a  producing  standpoint?  Who  will  deny 
that  a  few  companies  are  working  out  their 
destinies  so  that  they  will  strangle  those  companies 
which  cannot  fortify  themselves  with  sufficient 
financial  backing  to  compete  with  the  octopus 
of  money-power  that  is  pouring  money  into  the 
pockets  of  individual  stars  and  directors. 

The  concentration  of  a  demand  on  the  part 
of  exhibitors  for  the  use  of  a  certain  few 
stars  whose  names  the  exhibitors  have  made 
household  words  in  the  homes  of  the  American 
public  can  result  in  only  one  thing — the  milking 
of  the  exhibitor  unlil  he  has  only  one  course 
left :  either  to  work  for  the  producer  or  the  star 


or  sell  out  his  interests  to  the  company  that 
has  the  most  money  and  retire  from  the  industry. 

Compare  the  prices  that  are  being  asked  for 
certain-  stars  today  as  against  a  few  years  ago. 
True  their  drawing  power  may  be  greater  than 
it  was  then  but  have  your  profits  increased  m 
proportion  to  the  income  of  the  stars  whom  you 
are  demanding.  Two  or  three  years  ago  you 
may  have  been  charging  a  few  cents  less  for  ad 
mission  than  you  are  today.  Perhaps  you  have 
a  bigger  seating  capacity  than  you  had  then  but 
can  you  conscientiously  say  that  the  demand  you 
have  created  by  publicizing  and  advertising  these 
stars  entitles  a  star  who  was  earning  a  few  hun- 
dred dollars  a  week  to  make  enough  out  of  youi 
efforts  to  pav  to  the  government  a  tax  on  an 
income  anywhere  frome  one  hundred  thousand 
to  three-quarters  of  a  million  profit  per  picture. 
The  vital  question  is  not  what  are  the  prospects 
for  the  coming  year,  but  what  are  you  going  to 
do  to  demand  "new  faces,"  sane  production  costs 
and  an  open  market. 

The  independents,  and  I  mean  by  independents, 
those  who  are  not  maintaining  a  national  distri- 
bution organization,  but  are  doing  their  utmost  to 
bring  new  faces  to  the  screen.  To  take  from 
the  rank  and  file  of  the  actors  and  actresses, 
people  of  ability  and  give  them  a  chance  to  por- 
tray parts  in  accordance  with  the  thoughts  and 
ideas  of  the  writers  of  good  stories.  The  in- 
dependents have  been  trying  to  cultivate  new 
writers,  new  directors,  but  to  what  end?  As 
soon  as  an  Independent  has  launched  a  star 
or  a  writer  or  a  director,  the  seed  of  discontent 
is  spread  by  the  money  powered  organizations 
and  soon  that  same  person's  name  is  blazoned 
forth  in  electric  lights  and  fortunes  spent  to 
advertise  and  in  the  end  you  again  pay  the  tariff 
and  are  placed  in  the  same  position. 

Do  not  ask  what  the  prospects  are — but  knuckle 
down  to  correct  the  wasteful  practices  and  the

NEW  FACES,  NEW  IDEAS,  COMING 

Aside  from  a  natural 
improvement  in  motion 
pictures  which  1925  will 
bring  us,  I  look  to  the 
new  year  to  develop  new 
personalities,  new  faces, 
new  ideas  in  picture  pro- 
duction. 

In  our  company  we 
have  already  embarked 
on  a  policy  of  recruit- 
ing new  blood,  both 
among  players,  directors 
and  authors.  We  shall 
continue  to  develop  this 
policy  during  the  coming 
year. 

If  producers  are  to  solve  many  of  the  prob- 
lems of  casting  which  now  beset  them,  they 
must  adopt  this  plan  of  bringing  new  people 
into  the  studios.  There  has  been  no  diminution 
in  the  number  of  feature  pictures  produced  from 
year  to  year.  On  the  other  hand,  there  has 
been  no  great  increase  in  the  number  of  avail- 
able players  and  directors. 

Consequently,  week  after  week  the  studios  have 
been  faced  with  the  tremendous  difficulty  of  ob- 
taining the  proper  people  for  the  important  sup- 
porting roles.  Productions  have  had  to  wait 
upon  the  availability  of  individual  players;  some- 
times productions  have  had  to  be  made  when  a 
wider  choice  of  playing  material  would  have  en- 
abled the  producer  immeasurably  to  strengthen 
his  cast. 

Not  only  have  producers  been  hampered  by 
this  paucity  of  playing  material;  the  players  them- 
selves) have  suffered.  The  leading  character 
players  have  been  forced  onto  the  screen  too 
frequently  for  their  own  good.  No  doubt  this 
condition  brought  them  greater  immediate  pros- 
perity ;  but  it  has  been  an  unhealthy  condition 
and  has  lessened  the  length  of  the  player's  screen 
career,  and  has  not  made  for  the  best  work.

The  responsible  producer  must  look  to  the 
future.  He  must  protect  himself  by  bringing  in 
lew  people  who  can  be  trained  and  built  up 
into  definite  box-office  attractions.  Famous  Play- 
ers-Lasky  Corporation  is  taking  the  lead  in  this 
matter.  Already,  in  the  last  few  months,  we  have 
signed  up  eight  promising  young  women  whom 
we  expect  to  develop  into  important  box-office 
personalities.  We  have  engaged  several  young  di 
rectors  who  already  have  justified  the  policy  by 
the  success  of  their  first  pictures.  Morevover, 
wc  are  training  young  writers  in  our  studios 
to  the  end  that  they  shall  know  the  requirements 
of  the  screen  and  write  their  fiction  accordingly. 

All  of  this  is  progress  and  it  is  a  little  more 
than  present  progress;  it  is  insurance  of  progress 
in  the  future. 


THE  INDEPENDENT 

In   submitting  my  opin- 
>ll    as   to   the   outlook  of 
mr  industry  for  the  forth- 
iming  year,  I  have  made 
ix  such  statements  for  the 
ast  six  years.     Maybe  I 
as  overzealous  or  too  ego- 
stical,      but  conditions 
em  to  take  the  opposite 
f  my  view  point.     For  a 
}ng  time,  I  used  the  old 
tereotyped     line,  "condi- 
10ns    were   never  better." 
and  I  used  to  Yes  myself 
Max  Graf  to  death,  believing  it.  We 

all  know  the  industry  is  growing  by  leaps  and 
bounds,  and  conditions  were  never  better  for  the 
old  line  producers.  Realization  has  finally  come 
that  a  trade  mark  is  just  as  valuable  in  the  pic- 
ture business,  as  it  is  on  a  loaf  of  bread,  chewing 
tobacco  or  a  can  of  sardines. 

Of  course,  I  must  speak  as  an  independent 
producer,  who  has  taken  the  hard  knocks  of  dis- 
tribution, and  must  look  from  the  indpendents 
point  of  view.  It  is  a  long  known  fact  that  the 
old  line  companies  intend  to  make  most  of  theii 
own  productions  and  I  cannot  for  the  life  of  me 
see  what  is  going  to  happen  to  all  the  inde- 
pendent producers  who  are  struggling  for  ex- 
itsence. 

A  stroke  question  of  late  has  been,  "What's 
wrong  with  the  movies?"  During  the  past,  ac- 
cording to  my  theory,  the  industry  has  been  more 
or  less  in  a  comatose  state.  Producers  have 
permitted  politics  and  destiny  to  guide  the  screen, 
until  at  last  they  come  to  a  realization  that  the 
Goose  laying  the  golden  egg  was  growing  sick 
and  thin  for  want  of  proper  nourishment,  and 
that  if  the  harvest  was  to  continue,  they  must 
change  her  diet,  hence  old  line  distributors  mak- 
ing their  own  pictures. 

Now,  we  revert  back  to  the  independent  pro- 
ducers. Independent  producers  will  undoubtedly 
be  combined  in  an  organization,  with  one  com- 
mon clearing  house.  In  the  first  place,  distri- 
bution costs  are  so  high  that  one  clearing  house 
formed  of  independents,  who  have  been  in  a  posi- 
tion to  stay  in  the  business  would  materially 
reduce  this  cost,  which  today  is  the  Boogy-Boo 
of  the  industry.  Independents  have  been  talking 
organization  for  some  time,  but  as  yet  no  defi- 
nite plans  have  been  formulated,  nor  has  there 
been  conceited  action  to  bring  the  question  to 
a  head.  The  independents  have  demonstrated,  that 
they  can  produce  pictures  cheaper,  since  they 
haven't  the  excessive  overhead,  as  they  rent  their 
studio  space,  and  that  expense  ceases  with  the 
completion  of  the  picture.  The  independents  must 
make  good.  The  responsibility  of  a  superior  prod- 
uct rests  heavily  on  them,  otherwise  they  would 
have  been  snuffed  out  long  ago.  In  the  first  place, 
no  one  distributor  can  corral  all  the  brains  of 
the  industry.  There  are  too  many  young  people 
coming  up,  who  have  brilliant  ideas  about  picture 
making.  These  ideas  combined  with  the  mechanics 
of  the  industry,  mean  success.  I  predict  within 
another  year,  we  will  see  many  more  independents, 


composed  of  new  people,  entering  the  producers 
class  for  the  first  time,  and  if  proper  distribu- 
tion arrangements  are  made,  these  will  be  the 
people  that  will  dominate  the  industry.  As  one 
reviews  notable  pictures,  you  will  find  the  out- 
standing successes  have  been  provided  by  the  inde- 
pendents, with  organizations  that  will  make  more 
and  better  pictures. 


BETTER  PICTURES  COMING 

I     am     very  optimistic 
ibout  the  outlook  for  next 
/ear.      There    is    in  sight 
•lore  of  the  better  class  of 
ictures.  Presentations 
ire  getting  better     and  I 
>ok  to  see  1924-1925  one 
f  the  best  yea-s  we  have 
ad  in  some  time. 
There    is    an  evolution 
roing  on  in  the  film  busi- 
;ess  that  is  just  now  tak- 
ing  concrete   form.  The 
,,  business     was     never  so 

Koxy  stable   as   it     is     at  this 

moment  and  I  think  with  the  producers  vieing 
with  one  another  to  produce  wholesome,  clean 
box  office  attractions,  exhibitors  are  stepping  for- 
ward and  giving  the  public  better  presentations. 
The  response  from  the  public  is  sure  to  be  en- 
couraging and  whole-hearted. 

I  think  that  a  better  understanding  between  ex- 
hibitor and  producer  will  result  to  their  mutual 
benefit  and  I  think  this  is  being  brought  about 
by  various  forces  now  at  work. 


WHAT'S  AHEAD  OF  US 
W.  RAY  JOHNSTON 

At  this  time  of  the  year  the  executives  usually 
sit  down  and  write  a  lengthy  oration  on  "1925 
Will  lie  The  Greatest  Year  in  the  Film  History," 
etc.,  which  is  all  right  in  itself,  as,  if  we  believe 
in  this  industry,  as  I  do,  we  should  feel  that  each 
year  will  show  material  improvement  and  advance- 
ment in  all  lines. 

1924  in  my  opinion  has  added  little  to  date,  ex- 
cept a  tightening  up  of  the  Producer-owned  the- 
ater combination,  which  certainly  cannot  prove  a 
step  forward  in  the  right  direction  for  the  industry 
as  a  whole. 

For  the  new  year  which  I  firmly  believe  will  be 
a  bigger  and  broader  one  in  every  sense  of  the 
word,  we  should  look  ahead  to  more  construc- 
tive thoughts.  Every  exhibitor,  if  he  is  not  pro- 
gressing in  the  right  direction,  should  spend  a 
few  hours  checking  up  on  himself  and  seeing  just 
where  he  is  wrong,  and  how  he  can  better  the 
situation  and,  even  if  he  is  on  the  uphill  grade, 
a  few  hours  thus  spent  would  furnish  him  with 
many  thoughts  of  wherein  he  is  wrong,  and  in 
laying  out  his  plans  for  the  New  Year  even  those 
defects  could  be  remedied. 

Too  many  exhibitors  in  my  opinion  are  too 
well  satisfied  to  go  along  in  a  rut.  They  rent  a 
picture,  advertise  it  in  the  regular  way  and  then 
wait  for  them  to  come  in.  Almost  every  picture 
has  some  special  angle  to  play  on  if  only  a  little 
thought  were  given  to  study  its  merits.  Every- 
thing possible  in  the  way  of  courtesy  and  con- 
venience that  would  appeal  to  the  patron  should 
be  worked  out  and  by  booking  a  consisistent 
program  of  pictures  there  is  no  reason  why  the 
new  season  should  not  be  a  good  one. 

Certainly  we  are  advancing  yearly  in  production 
quality  and  if  the  larger  companies  can  only  be 
convinced  that  the  picture  with  the  suggestive 
title  really  gets  them  no  place  in  the  long  run, 
we  should  be  on  our  way  to  bigger  and  better 
things.

PREVENT  TRUSTIFICATION 

^  In  my  opinion  the  most 

important  task  the  industry 
1'aces  is  to  prevent  its 
trustification. 

This  devolves  largely  up- 
on  the  theater  owner.  Hy 
lis  acts,  or  rather  the  lack 
>{  them,  he  has  brought 
bout  the  existing  situa- 
ion  where  the  trustifica- 
ion  of  the  industry  is 
ooming  clearly  ahead. 

If   the   next   five  years 
bring    a    series   of  contin- 
Samuel  Zierler        uing  developments  such  as 
the  last  five  brought,  the  industry  will  be  again 
in  the  same  boat  that  it  was  in  the  days  of  the 
Patents  Company — and  you  know  what  that  was. 

If  the  cycle  of  developments  brings  us  back 
again  to  that  sort  of  thing  it  will  be  a  sad  day 
for  the  majority  of  men  who  today  are  active  in 
every  branch  of  the  business.  Producers  and  dis- 
tributors of  course  will  suffer  a  loss,  but  their 
losses  will  be  picayune  compared  to  the  losses  of 
theater  owners. 

The  theater  owner  still  has  it  within  his  power 
to  halt  the  trust-movement.  If  he  dots  his  buy- 
ing so  that  the  competitive  system  of  distribution 
is  maintained,  and  if  he  divides  his  purchases 
among  all  distributors  of  worth  while  product,  his 
property  is  safe.  But  if  he  pursues  the  foolish 
policy  of  *  patronizing  certain  national  companies 
to  the  whole  or  partial  exclusion  of  the  "Inde- 
pendent Distributor,"  then,  as  surely  as  night 
follows  day,  the  firms  to  which  he  today  is  giv- 
ing the  major  portion  of  his  business  will  own 
him  body  and  soul  tomorrow. 

In  my  opinion,  the  coming  year  is  exceedingly 
important  in  view  of  this  situation.  The  theater 
owner  is  thoroughly  cognizant  of  it.  What  he  does 
about  it  may  not  materially  affect  his  immediate 
prosperity — but  it  is  certain  what  he  does  next 
year  will  materially  affect  his  standing,  maybe  his 
entire  investment,  in  the  near  future. 


NO  CAUSE  FOR  ALARM 

The  year  1925  offers  ex- 
tional  opportunities  to  the 
motion  picture  companies 
who  can  deliver  the  goods 
-and  for  tliose  who  have 
not  or  can  not  produce 
pictures  that  are  up  to  a 
certain  standard,  there  is 
a  hard  road  ahead.  It  is 
the  old  story  of  the  sur- 
ival  of  the  fittest. 
Despite  the  growing 
tendency  towards  monopoly 
and  amalgamation  in  both 
Sam  E.  Morris  the  producing  and  exhibit- 
ing branches  of  the  industry,  there  will  always 
be  an  outlet  for  a  product  of  outstanding  merit. 
The  public  today  is  not  simply  going  to  the  the- 
ater because  it  is  open — they  are  shopping  for 
their  entertainment  as  they  do  for  other  com- 
modities and  no  theater  owner  can  afford  to  ne- 
glect the  public's  demand  any  more  than  a  big 
merchant  can  refuse  to  carry  brands  of  merchan- 
dise that  are  advertised  and  known  as  representing 
quality. 

Competition  will  be  as  keen  in  the  coming 
year  as  ever  but  the  struggle  for  business  will 
be  between  the  larger  organizations  capable  of 
marshalling  powerful  resources  in  every  branch. 

The  fly-by-night  promoter  has  probably  been 
eliminated  from  the  motion  picture  business  to  a 
greater  extent  than  almost  any  industry  and  1925 
will  mark  a  great  stride  towards  the  extinction 
of  this  parasite.  One  of  the  great  factors  in  this 
has  been  the  recognition  by  the  public  of  the 
name  and  trade  mark  of  the  genuine  producer 
who  earnestly  strives  to  consistently  offer  worth 
while  pictures.  The  business  is  rapidly  reaching 
the  stage  when  the  public  will  go  to  the  theater 
and  request  a  Warner  or  other  representative 
product  just  as  soon  as  they  now  ask  for  definite 
kinds  of  merchandise  in  commercial  lines. 


The  transformation  of  exhibitors  into  showmen 
is  going  to  be  more  pronounced  than  ever  during 
the  coming  year  and  as  a  means  to  this  end  a 
closer  coordination  between  the  producer  and  the 
exhibitor  will  be  found  necessary  and  forthcoming. 

1925  offers  no  cause  for  alarm,  on  the  con- 
trary it  is  eagerly  anticipated  by  the  representa- 
tive producer.

NEW  TALENT  NEEDED 

For  the  first  time  in 
years  Hollywood  will  see 
considerable  production 
activity  during  the  winter 
months.  I  believe  the 
progress  of  the  United 
Studios  can  be  taken  as 
a  fair  example  of  produc- 
tion in  Los  Angeles  this 
winter.  Contracts  have 
been  signed  for  practically 
capacity  production  at  this 
plant  during  the  months  of 
December,  January  and 
M.  C.  LEVEE  February. 
Generally  at  this  time  of  the  year  production  is 
curtailed  and  in  the  past  has  been  entirely  discon- 
tinued in  a  number  of  studios.  The  capacity  pro- 
duction during  the  winter  months  in  Hollywood 
is  clearly  an  indication  of  the  fact  that  produc- 
tion has  again  swung  in  practically  its  entirety 
to  Los  Angeles.  In  a  number  of  specific  instances, 
producers  who  have  left  here  to  make  pictures 
in  New  York,  have  returned  without  even  shoot- 
ing a  scene  there.  At  the  United  plant  we  have 
a  number  of  prominent  producers  who  have  looked 
over  the  New  York  production  facilities  and  have 
declared  them  no  better  today  than  they  were  a 
year  or  more  ago. 

Despite  anything  that  may  be  said,  facts  are 
facts  and  Los  Angeles  still  is  and  always  will  be 
the  home  of  motion  picture  production  in  this 
country.  During  the  coming  year  I  already  have 
indications  of  the  fact  that  even  producers  who 
have  long  scorned  the  idea  of  working  in  Holly- 
wood, are  coming  here.  I  predict  that  during  the 
next  twelve  months  we  will  see  greater  produc- 
tion in  Hollywood  than  ever  before  disclosed  in 
the  history   of  motion  picture  making. 

From  the  standpoint  of  a  producer  it  seems 
quite  evident  that  the  demand  for  names  and 
box  office  titles  will  continue  supreme  during  the 
coming  year.  If  you  have  a  good  box  office 
title  and  two  or  more  popular  box  office  names 
in  the  way  of  stars  you  will  stand  a  good  chance 
of  making  a  profitable  picture.  Without  names 
even  a  worthwhile  story  will  have  difficulty  in 
even  reaching  the  public.  It  is  unfortunate  that 
the  demnad  for  names  in  pictures  has  become 
all  important  because  of  the  fact  that  it  limits 
the  field  of  actors  to  a  comparatively  few  and 
stifles  the  much  needed  introduction  of  new  faces 
on  the  screen.  It  also  brings  up  the  salaries  of 
these  players  and  places  them  in  an  arbitrary 
position  in  this  connection. 

Unless  something  radical  is  done  to  develop 
new  talent,  motion  pictures  will  seriously  suffer 
and  no  producer  can  attempt  to  develop  new  talent 
under  the  present  method  of  operation  which  de- 
mands that  he  engage  one  of  some  forty  or  fifty 
players  whose  names  are  considered  box  office 
attractions. 

It  has  come  to  a  point  where  a  name  means 
even  more  than  the  qualifications  of  an  actor  to 
play  a  certain  part,  which  is  certainly  an  un- 
healthy condition  for  the  motion  picture  business 
from  an  artistic  standpoint.  It  is  entirely  within 
the  hands  of  exhibitors  to  encourage  producers 
to  make  pictures  with  a  little  more  regard  for 
artistic  merit  and  just  a  little  less  for  box  office 
names.  We  cannot  always  give  the  public  the 
same  players  and  sooner  or  later  must  bring 
new  blood  into  the  business.  It  is  therefore  only 
a  matter  of  time  when  we  must  begin  to  develop 
new  players  although  I  do  not  look  for  this  to 
be  realized  during  the  coming  year.

ing  the  coming  year 

no  longer  an  outlet  for  inferior  pictures 
have  become  the  source  of  a  high  grade,  reliable 
supply  of  the  best  available  productions. 

The  biggest  novels,  the  biggest  stage  pieces 
that  can  be  bought  furnish  the  independents  with 
stories.  Our  Preferred  Picture,  "The  Boomerang," 
the  great  Belasco  play  that  was  sold  at  a  record 
price,  is  an  example  of  what  the  independents 
have.  And  Mr.  Exhibitor  can  buy  independent 
product  without  signing  up  for  a  series  if  lemons 
in  order  to  get  one  film  that  will  net  him  a  profit. 

The  wise  showman  will  make  1925  an  indepen- 
dent year.   

1925  IMPORTANT 

w  The  strong  and  consis- 

ent  upward  trend  in  all 
nes  of  business  that  has 
een  manifest  for  the  past 
ix  or  eight  months  is  the 
jrerunner  of  the  greatest 
ra  of  prosperity  our  coun- 
ry  has  experienced  in  a 
;eneration,  and  we  of  the 
notion  picture  industry 
annot  fail  to  see  in  it  an 
>pportunity  for  advancing 
>ur  interests  to  a  high 
mark,  surpassing  anything 
'hat  has  gone  before. 

Our  business  is  not  es- 
entially  one  that  re- 
sponds as  a  whole  to 
room  times  of  purely  sec- 
tional  limitation  or  in 
John  E.  Storey  certain  individual  lines 
True,  such  booms  do  have  their  good  effects,  but 
they  are  not  necessarily  lasting.  It  is  pretty 
generally  the  case  that  these  good  effects  en- 
dure no  longer  than  the  conditions  which  caused 
them. 

The  outlook  today,  however,  is  far  different. 
The  American  farmer  has  come  into  his  own  and 
no  matter  how  remote  he  may  seem  from  the 
things  that  directly  touch  us,  he  is,  nevertheless, 
the  index  which  in  the  last  analysis  points  to  pros- 
perity for  us  all,  or  away  from  it.  It  is  esti- 
mated that  fully  50  per  cent  of  the  buying  power 
of  our  country  lies  in  the  hands  of  the  farmers. 
Since  the  war  the  prices  of  farm  products  have 
gradually  slumped  to  the  point  where  they  did  not 
even  represent  a  profit  for  labor.  Therefore, 
du'ing  that  period,  which  ended  less  than  a  year 
ago,  the  great  farm  purchasing  power  was  prac- 
tically non-existent. 

Within  the  last  six  months  wheat  has  hit  $1.50 
and  corn  has  gone  up  in  proportion.  Rust  has 
affected  the  Canadian  wheat  crop.  This  means 
that  the  world  must  look,  to  a  very  large  extent, 
to  the  American  wheat  crop,  and  the  American 
farmei  consequently  has  come  into  his  own. 

The  reaction  to  this  condition  has  had  far- 
reaching  effects.  For  example,  bumper  crops  and 
prices  mean  a  sha^p  increase  in  the  demand  for 
transportation.  Railroads,  called  upon  for  greater 
facilities,  are  hastening  const  uction  and  repair 
work,  and  the  consequence  is  tremendously  in- 
creased orders  for  steel. 

From  every  viewpoint,  therefore,  our  own  busi- 
ness is  looming  up  as  a  machine  of  huge  potential- 
ities, and  the  running  of  this  machine  is  in  our 
own  hands.     For  this  reason,   I   do  not  believe 


that  the  present  is  the  time  for  experiments  in 
new  systems  and  practises  of  questionable  value. 
1  do  not  believe  it  wise  for  us  to  devote  time 
to  such  things.  The  old  adage,  "Make  hay  while 
the  sun  shmes,"  is  not  by  any  means  out  of  date. 

For  the  best  results — and  it  is  best  results  that 
we  are  looking  for — I  am  confident  that  picture 
production  and  sales  must  be  kept  entirely  on  the 
competitive  basis  In  that  way  only  can  we  be 
assured  of  product  and  merchandising  of  merit 
proportionate  to  our  big  opportunities.  A  Mood 
of  mediocre  product  or  a  hint  of  false  values  in 
selling  would  do  us  more  harm  at  this  stage  than 
we  could  offset  in  a  year  of  working.  In  other 
words,  it  is  the  box  office  value  of  a  picture  that 
determines  the  patronage  of  a  house,  and  it  is 
upon  this  basis  that  we  must  sell. 

The  season  1924-25  is  destined  to  mean  great 
things  in  the  forward  march  of  the  motion  picture 
industry,  and  it  is  my  sincere  hope  that  the  in- 
dustry at  large — producers,  distributors  and  ex- 
hibitors— will  grasp  the  means  at  their  hands  to 
the  end  that  we  shall  establish  a  momentum  suf- 
ficient to  carry  us  to  new  and  hitherto  undreamed 
of  heights  of  success. 


AS  TO  THE  INDEPENDENT 

Broadly,  I  should  say 
that  the  prospects  for  a 
very  big  year  are  unusually 
good.  It  would  seem 
pretty  clear  that  the  mo- 
tion picture  theaters 
throughout  the  country  are 
for  a  big  season.  How- 
ever, the  benefits  may  not 
be  evenly  spread.  The 
development  of  power  in 
two  or  three  massive  dis- 
tributing organizations  and 
.    ,       _    „  .  the     rapidly  accumulating 

Arthur  b.  *nend  power  of  exhibitor  com- 
binations may  be  of  more  value  to  the  industry  at 
large  than  would  seem  at  first  glance.  Obviously, 
great  power  may  be  used  wisely,  or  unwisely. 
One  would  hazard  too  much  in  offering  an  opinion 
now  as  to  how  these  several  powers  will  be 
wielded.  Uusually  the  recruiting  of  forces  and 
the  tightening  of  lines  on  opposite  sides  presages 
war,  not  peace.  At  any  rate,  there  seems  to  be  a 
gradual  persistent  pre-emption  of  the  place  in 
which  the  so-called  independent  producer  might 
plant  and  cultivate  his  ambitions.  And  this  is 
much  to  be  regretted. 

One  might  be  genuinely  optomistic  if  there 
loomed  somewhere  on  the  horizon  the  coming  in 
of  a  well  financed,  well  manned  distributing 
agency,  that  would  operate  independently'  in  the 
truer  sense  of  independence,  and  which  would 
function  purely  as  an  agency,  and  not  as  a  con- 
troller of  the  product  that  came  to  its  doors. 


AGAIN  ON  A  SOUND  FOOTING 

T  consider  it  the  first 
asic  principle  of  success 
our  industry  that  motion 
ctures  are  the  entertain- 
ent  of  the  masses  rather 
an  the  classes.  And 
ith  this  in  mind  I  am 
•ppy  to  say  that  develop- 
ents  of  the  last  year 
:eak  well  for  prosperity 
v  the  picture  industry  in 
925. 

The    great    "super  spe- 
c   ur    ti     _  cials"    which    attracted  so 

W-  Hammons      muth  allention  for  a  (ime 

undoubtedly  won  lor  the  picture  theaters  a  cer- 
tain amount  of  new  patronage  from  the  classes. 
But  they  unfortunately  brought  about  a  diminish- 
ed interest  on  the  part  of  some  exhibitors  in  keep- 
ing up  for  their  audiences  that  diversity  of  enter- 
tainment which  means  so  much  to  the  "regular 
fan" — the  ordinary  picture  goer  of  the  masses. 
There  could  be  but  one  result ;  a  loss  of  patronage 
from  the  masses  that  far  more  than  balanced  the 
small  gains  from  the  classes.  This  meant,  of 
course,  a  net  loss  at  the  box-office.

We  have  seen  in  the  more  recent  months  a 
very  notable  return  to  the  principle  of  the  well 
balanced  program  and  diversified  entertainment. 
We  are  winning  back  the  lost  patronage  from  the 
masses.  And  the  box-office  will  prosper  as  a  re- 
sult, especially  since  the  patronage  won  from  the 
classes  need  not  now  be  sacrificed  if  quality  is 
kept  up  throughout  the  diversified  show  that 
wins  and  holds  the  masses. 

We  are  again  on  a  fundamentally  sound  footing, 
and  the  year  1925  looks  bright. 


WANTS  COMMON   SENSE  BOOKING 

The  "second  line"  of 
distributors  has  at  last 
dropped  the  mediocre  pic- 
ture, and  now  offers  prod- 
uct in  every  way  com- 
parable with  that  of 
the  bull-dozing  "first-line" 
companies-  If  the  ex- 
hibitor will  only  analyze, 
picture  for  picture,  the 
box  office  qualities  of  the 
offerings  of  all  concerns, 
he  will  no  longer  be  at 
the  mercy  of  the  two  or 
Myron  Selznick  three   so-called  leaders 

Common  sense  booking  should  bring  a  bigger 
year  for  the  independent  producers  and  distributors 
despite  the   ever-tightening   first-run  situation. 


WANTS    CENTRAL   SHIPPING  BUREAUS 

The  establisment  of  cen- 
tral shipping  bureaus  for 
all  distributors  in  twenty- 
five  of  the  thirty-two  cities 
wherein  are  located  Film 
Boards  of  Trade  would,  in 
my  opinion,  be  one  of  the 
most  constructive  moves 
that  could  be  made  by 
this  industry  in  1925.  It 
would  not  be  practical  in 
seven  of  the  thirty-two 
cities  at  present. 

nu  n     -d     ■■  This  is  not  a  new  idea, 

Charles    C.    Pettijohn  nor    (joes    jt    SUggest  any 

radical  departure  from  present  methods.    It  is  now 
being  sucessfully  done  in  three  exchange  centers 
and  if  adopted  in  twenty-two  more  a  still  greater 
economy  would  be  brought  about. 

It  may  not  be  done  in  1925.  But  if  "eventually, 
why  not  now?" 


A  GREAT  YEAR  FOR   LONG  SHOTS 

Success  in  1925  will 
otne  to  those  companies 
hat  open  their  ears  for 
istribution  information 
iut  who  are  deaf  to  pro- 
luction  precedent. 

Every     year     we  learn 
nore     about  distributing 
ictures — a  bout  service, 
uilding  good  will  and  co- 
perating  with  exhibitors. 
Every  year  we  find  we 
'know   less   about  making 
pictures. 

R.  H.  Cochrane  jn  tj,e  year  just  ending 
there  have  been  more  good  pictures  than  ever 
before.  Next  year  the  average  quality  will  be 
still  higher. 

As  a  result,  the  producer  who  succeeds  best  in 
pleasing  the  public  and  the  exhibitor  will  be  the 
man  who  pays  no  attention  to  the  past,  who  dis- 
regards the  inside  information,  who  ignores  the 
dope  and  who  is  willing  to  take  big  risks  on  pro- 
moting something  new. 

The  great  pictures  of  1924  were,  almost  without 
exception,  productions  which  never  would  have 
been  made  if  the  question  of  whether  or  not  they 
should  be  attempted  had  been  left  to  a  popular 
vote. 

You  could  count  in  half  a  minute  all  the  people 
who  predicted  the  great  success  of  "The  Hunch- 


back of  Notre  Dame."  All  the  records  of  the  past 
assured  failure  for  "The  Leather  Pushers"  ser- 
ies. None  of  the  experts  even  guessed  a  year 
ago  that  the  fastest  growing  star  in  motion 
pictures  would  be  Reginald  Denny. 

The  show  business  has  always  been  a  gamble 
and  the  production  of  motion  pictures  is  the 
show  business. 

The  producer  who  tries  to  play  sure  things  will 
drift  behind  with  the  other  men  in  other  lines 
of  business  who  try  to  live  by  imitation. 

It's  going  to  be  a  great  year  for  long  shots. 


WANTS    FURTHER  CO-OPERATION 

The  outlook  for  the  com- 
ng  year  in  my  opinion, 
lepends  entirely  on  the 
■  rosperity  of  the  country 
it  large.  Financial  and 
'usiness  men  are  very  op- 
imistic  at  the  present  time 
as  to  first  rate  busines 
ondi'ions  existing  during 
le  coming  year.  -  So,  if 
linn -in  and  signs  amount 
i  anything  we  shall  have 
rosperity  in  the  motion 
picture  industry. 
William  E.  Atkinson  As  to  suggestions  which 
I  think  might  improve  conditions :  1  think  last 
year  I  said  that  good,  entertaining  productions  at 
a  cost  within  reason  was  all  that  was  the  in- 
dustry needed.  I  think  the  time  is  fast  approach- 
ing when  producer,  distributor  and  exhibitor  will 
cooperate  more  fully  and  I  believe  the  good  de- 
rived from  such  cooperation  will  be  too  great  to 
be  estimated.  Added  to  this,  if  we  could  all  learn 
to  tell  the  truth  a  little  oftener  than  we  do  and 
pay  less  attention  to  foolish  rumors  with  which 
our  industry  seems  to  be  cursed,  there  would  be 
nothing  much  left  to  worry  about. 

FURTHER  CENTRALIZATION 

The  tendency  of  the 
industry  during  the  past 
year  has  been  toward  cen- 
tralization in  production 
distribution  and  exhibi- 
tion. I  believe  this  con- 
dition will  continue  dur- 
ing the  next  twelve 
months  and  that  Decern 
ber,  1925,  will  find  still 
more  limited  ownership 
in  the  three  principal 
branches  of  the  industry. 

There  is  strongly  main 
tained  competition  at 
present  between  manufac 
turers,  wholesalers  and 
retailers  of  motion  pictures  for  larger  shares  of 
the  money  which  is  collected  at  the  box  office. 
This  is  always  reflected,  of  course,  in  the  ordi- 
nary daily  bargaining  for  individual  pictures, 
but  it  is  being  expressed  at  present  even  more 
forcefully  in  collective  dealing. 

We  are  making  distinct  accounting  progress 
in  all  branches  of  the  business  and  are  coming 
closer  and  closer  every  year  to  efficiency.  Pro- 
duction and  ensuing  costs  are  being  slowly  re- 
duced, so  that  the  same  number  of  dollars  paid 
us  by  the  public  are  affording  a  larger  share 
of  profits. 

Not  long  ago  I  found  many  independent  pro- 
ducers were  careless  of  expenditures,  wasteful  be- 
cause of  lack  of  proper  planning  and  more  in- 
terested in  getting  pictures  into  work  than  in 
taking  reasonable  precautions  to  insure  econo- 
mical and  profitable  production.  Now,  I  find  they 
are  generally  charting  their  work  in  daily  de- 
tail and  are  measuring  manufacturing  progress 
by  the  rules  of  experience  and  good  business 
practice. 

Economics  and  combinations  are  being  forced 
upon  us.  They  are  stablizing  influences — a  natural 
process  of  development.  We  have  entered  the 
era  of  the  survival  of  the  fittest,  this  applying 
to  manufacture,  distribution  and  exhibition.  The 
time  has  passed  when  a  few  hundred  dollars  and

a  temporary  shack  suffice  for  financing  and  equip- 
ment. 

We  all  remember  when  the  department  store 
was  heralded  as  the  successor  to  the  specializing 
druggist,  dry  goods  houses,  suit  dealer,  furniture 
man  and  grocer.  Vet,  since  then,  though  the 
department  s  ore  has  prospered,  there  have  grown 
•up  in  each  of  the  separate  lines  it  handles,  chain 
Institutions  which  are  equally  successful.  And 
right  along  with  the  other  two  is  traveling  the 
alert,  progressive,  neighborhood  dealer  whose 
buying  capacity  is  small  bu;  who  successfully 
meets  the  competition  of  price  with  service. 

The  immediate  development — the  coming  year's 
contribution  to  our  progress — is  but  an  incidental 
consideration.  Personally,  I  believe  we  may  rea- 
sonably expect  one  of  the  most  successful  years 
the  industry  has  known.  But  it  is  becoming  now 
a  matter  more  of  business-like  utilization  of  income 
than  of  actually  counting  the  dollars  which  mo- 
tion   pictures   bring   from   a   liberal  public. 


GREATER  TRIUMPHS  TO  COME 

The  past  year  has  been  marked  by  many  note- 
worthy achievements  in  the  motion  picture  indus- 
try. Of  these  the  most  outstanding  advances  have 
been  made  in  the  highly  specialized  science  of  the 
developing  and  printing  of  motion  picture  film. 

Through  the  expenditure  of  vast  sums  of  money 
for  experiment  and  research  made  possible  by  the 
combination  of  the  four  foremost  film  printing 
laboratories  in  the  country  into  one  centralized 
organization,  the  Consolidated  Film  Industries, 
Inc.,  technical  perfection  has  been  attained.  The 
unifo  m  high  quality  of  every  print  is  now  ab- 
solutely guaranteed. 

Every  requirement  of  the  producer  for  speed  and 
accuracy  without  sacrifice  of  quality  is  now  being 
met.  The  safety  and  careful  handling  of  the 
valuable  negatives  is  placed  in  the  hands  of  experts 
and  secured  by  the  resources  of  a  strong  organiza- 
tion. 

The  hap-hazard  methods  of  earlier  days  have 
been  replaced  by  scientific  processes ;  and  auto- 
matic machinery  now  does  with  great  economy, 
work  formerly  done  imperfectly  by  hand. 

The  art  of  the  cameraman,  the  skill  of  the  di- 
rector are  now  accurately  cunveyed  from  camera 
to  screen  by  Certified  Prints.  The  progress  al- 
ready made,  and  improvements  constantly  under- 
taken, point  the  way  still  greater  triumphs  in  the 
artistry  of  the  motion  picture  productions  of  the 
future— H.  J.  YATES,  Consolidated  Film  Indus- 
tries, Inc. 


LESS  DIRECTORS  1925  KEYNOTE 

To  produce  better  pic- 
tures in  1925  there  should 
be  fewer  persons  involved 
in  the  making  of  a  pic- 
ture. 

In  the  last  year  I 
have  seen  many  big  direc- 
tors of  the  past  reduced 
to  the  position  of  begin- 
ners. In  their  dealings 
with  so  many  beginners 
producers  have  forgotten 
what  it  is  to  rely  upon 
the  men  of  experience 
and  ability. 

In  consequence  thereof 
we  have  producers  whose 
prime  interest  is  to  outline  how  a  picture  should 
lie  directed,  long  before  they  even  think  of  how 
it  is  going  to  be  distributed. 

So  prevalent  is  this  custom  of  telling  incom- 
petent directors  what  to  do  and  how  to  do  it 
that  even  scenario  writers  formulate  ideas  on  how 
a  scene  should  be  directed  and  append  footnotes 
demanding  that  the  scene  be  done  no  other  way. 

If  the  title  writer  happens  to  strike  a  good  idea, 
it  seems  to  have  become  his  prerogative  to  go'  to 
the  director  and  have  him  shoot  a  particular  scene 
to   fit  the  title. 

Instead  of  the  director  telling  the  art  director 
what  to  do,  the  custom  is  reversed. 

The  propery  man  and  the  wardrobe  mistress 
have  been   heard  from   but   faintly,   but  stentorian 


Maurice  Tourneur 


minimization  of  the  director  may  also  come  from 
them. 

What  a  falling  off  was  there! 

Failing  in  the  execution  of  his  own  ideas,  the 
director,  the  real  man  to  whom  the  making  of 
a  picture  should  be  intrusted,  becomes  listless  and 
disinterested  in  his  work.  And  how  can  we  have 
good  pictures  under  such  conditions?  It  is  like 
three  or  four  people  giving  a  sculptor  their  ideas 
on  how  he  should  mold  the  statue  of  his  own 
creation. 

1925  must  see  the  director  reinstated  as  the 
man  who  gives,  not  takes,  orders — or  it  will  see 
bad  pictures. 

And  in  order  to  keep  the  industry  healthy,  we 
must  do  the  Spartan  thing  of  weeding  out  the 
hypochondriacs  ! 


FEWER  "FACTORY"   MADE  PICTURES 

From  a  production 
standpoint,  I  shou'd  say 
that  the  outlook  for  the 
coming  year  is  an  opti 
mistic  one,  with  variety 
the  keynote. 

The  next  twelve  months 
I  believe,  will  see  an  ar- 
ray of  pictures,  more 
varied  in  plot,  with  more 
novelty  in  treatment  and 
construction  than  in  the 
pictures  produced  during 
the  same  period  just 
closing. 

To     keep     the  public 
Earl  J.   Hudson        coming  to  the  box-office 
we  must  put  more  attention  to  siory — a  fact  which 
I   feel    is   appreciated   by   every   producer   in  the 
business. 

During  the  coming  year,  the  industry  will  break 
further  away  from  the  "formula"  and  "factory" 
type  of  picture  for  I  think  that  every  producer, 
writer  and  director  in  the  business  realizes  that 
the  screen  is  starving  for  originality  and  novelty. 

Perhaps  the  public  will  welcome  a  picture  now 
and  again  in  which  the  hero  doesn't  get  the 
girl.  Perhaps  we  shall  be  given  a  heroine  who 
does  not  suffer  persecution  through  six  reels  to 
finally  be  rewarded  in  the  seventh.  And  what  is 
more,  the  jaded  public  might  even  be  treated 
to  a  picture  without  even  a  hero,  heroine  or 
villain. 


MORE   LAUGHS  COMING 


Short  comedies  this 
year,  as  never  before 
must  have  hearty  laughs 
to  stand  up  against  the 
feature  length  comedies 
and  against  the  slapstick 
which  has  been  injected  of 
late  into  the  more  sen 
ous  type  of  dramatic  pro 
ductions. 

That  is  why  our  com 
pany,    for   one    is  going 
in  for  broad  hokum  and 
.    .  slapstick       laughs,  not 

Al  Christie  necessarily    the  pie-sling 

ing  style  of  slapstick,  but  more  the  type  of  com- 
edy which  has  what  we  call  "spot"  laughs,  guar- 
anteed laughs,  which  will  amuse  the  kids  and  the 
grown  ups  too. 

In  order  to  insure  himself  of  getting  just  this 
kind  of  two-reeler,  the  producer  previews  every 
comedy  which  goes  out,  usually  four  or  five  times, 
with  different  types  of  audiences,  to  keep  in  the 
big  laughs  and  to  throw  out  the  slow-moving  stuff 
unless  it  is  absolutely  necessary  to  put  over  the 
comedy  story. 

The  clever  directors  who  are  making  dramatic 
productions  today  have  stolen  the  slapstick  maker's 
methods.  They  are  injecting  gags  and  slapstick 
in  their  pictures  to  insure  themselves  of  laughs. 
Therefore,  the  two-reel  comedy  maker  now  has 
to  step  out  and  beat  them  at  their  own  game  so 
the  comedy  on  the  bffl  will  have  bigger  laughs 
in   it   than   the  feature.

Satisfying  the  Motion  Picture 

Palate 


No  successful  meal  is  wholly  dependent  upon  the 
excellence  of  its  entree.  The  many  small  "delicacies" 
— the  side  dishes — are  the  things  that  stamp  it  a 
success  or  a  failure. 

So  it  is  with  your  photoplay  menu — no  program  can 
be  PERFECT  without  the  "delicacies"  of  short  sub- 
jects, no  matter  how  excellent  your  feature. 

Let  RODNER  balance  your  program  with: 

"Out  of  the  Inkwell"  "Screen  Snapshots" 

"Felix  the  Cat"  "Alice  Cartoons" 

"Reg'lar  Kids"  (2-reel  comedies)

Talking  about 
CURRENT  RELEASES, 

I  have  RELEASED  quite  some 
CURRENT  in  the  Studios  in  the  past 
twelve  years, — but  I  don't  brag  about 
it,  I  make  LIGHT  of  it. 


For  the  last  word  in  electrical  equipment,  as  well  as  the 
first— SEE  ME. 

The  coming  year  should  be  an  eventful  one  in  Studio  light- 
ing as  I  have  a  number  of  surprises  in  new  lamps  and 
equipment. 

If  you  are  curious,  phone,  write  or  wire  me. 

Yours  for  "better  and  bigger  things  in  lighting,"

He  wrote  THE  MARK  OF  ZORKO 

and  put  Douglas  Fairbanks  definitely  on  the  film  map. 

He  wrote  THE  BRUTE  BKEAKER, 

and  it  made  Frank  Mayo. 

He  wrote  CAPT  AIN  FLY-BY-NIGHT, 

and  it  certainly  helped  Johnnie  Walker. 

He  wrote  UNCLAIMED  GOODS, 

in  which  Vivian  Martin  made  such  a  hit. 

He  wrote  RIDE  FOR  YOUR  LIFE! 

and  that  made  nobody  hate  Hoot  Gibson.

BRITISH  BENEVOLENT  FUND 

Declaring  an  avowed  purpose  of  securing  members 
if  the  cinematographic  trade  against  periods  of 
distress,  caused  by  sickness,  family  exigencies,  or 
economic  conditions.  The  Cinematographic  Trade 
Council  of  London,  published  a  proposal  to  institute 
a_  chapter  in  its  organization  to  cover  such  emergen- 
cies. This  proposal  takes  in  two  sections,  one  for 
the  Benevolent  Fund,  and  the  other  for  the  Provi- 
dent Fund.  The  first  has  as  its  object  to  afford 
assistance  and  relief  to  members  of  any  section 
of  the  Cinematograph  Trade;  for  the  maintenance 
and  education  of  their  orphan  children;  for  relief 
during  sickness  and  old  age  and  for  temporary 
loans  to  individual  members  without  interest.  It 
is  anticipated  that  this  fund  will  be  supported  by 
subscriptions,  donations,  voluntary  contributions, 
special  performances  and  such  other  measures  as 
shall  be  inaugurated  from  time  to  time. 

The  object  of  the  Provident  Fund  is  to  establish 
an  Exchequer  from  which  will  be  paid  insurance 
on  the  death  of  a  member,  and  the  extension  of 
benefits  in  other  directions.

j  It  takes  specialists  to  make  the  best,  whether  it's  shoes, 

|  soap  or  sourkraut. 

\  A  cameraman  can  be  a  nine  days'  wonder  when  it  comes 

to  shooting  a  feature;  but  turn  him  loose  on  a  news 
assignment  and  he's  pretty  apt  to  lose  himself. 

A  good  news  cameraman  has  got  to  be  a  zippy  combi- 
nation of  newspaper  reporter,  newspaper  photographer, 
diplomat  and  expert  crank  turner.  They  are  more  often 
born  than  made. 

Pathe  News  has  been  thirteen  years  in  selecting,  train- 
ing and  developing  the  largest  and  most  widely  scattered 
\  staff  of  cameramen  in  the  business.    There  are  1,400 

(  go-getter  placed  where  the  news  is  apt  to  happen.

GOLD  MEDAL  OFFERED  BY  RIESENFELD 

Dr.  Hugo  Riesenfeld  of  the  Rialto  and  Rivoli 
Theaters,  New  York,  has  offered  a  gold  medal 
for  the  best  short  subject  release  during  the  season 
of  1924-1925. 

The  jurors  who  will  determine  the  award  will 
include  : 

Joseph    Plunkett,    Strand,    New  York. 
J.  A.  Partington,  Rothschild  Theater,  San  Fran- 
cisco. 

Fred  Meyer,  Palace.  Hamilton.  Ohio. 
Frank  L.  Newman,  Kansas  City. 
Harold   B.   Franklin,   Famous   Plavers  Theaters. 
Harry   C.   McArthur,  Jr.,   West  Theaters,  Los 
Angeles. 

Riesenfeld  suggests  that  particular  attention  be 
paid  to  the  following: 

1.  Scenics  with  the  desired  novel  twist  that 
lifts  them  out  of  the  ordinary. 

2.  Short  dramas,  such  as  the  Will  Nigh  Minia- 
tures. 

3.  Pictures  with  a  definite  news  or  historical 
interest.  This  does  not  mean  the  news 
weeklies,  but  it  may  include  material  compiled 
from   them.     As   examples   of  such   films,  I 


would  mention  "Through  Three  Reigns,"  that 
interesting  picture  of  the  three  latest  rulers 
of  England,  and  Fox's  '  The  Life  of  Persh- 
ing." 

4.  Scientific  films  of  all  sorts,  provided  that 
their  technical  nature  does  not  interfere 
with  their  entertainment  value. 

5.  Films  which  arc  hard  to  put  in  any  particular 
category,  but  which  combine  some  of  the  fea- 
tures of  3  and  4,  such  as  the  films  of  the 
Shackleton  Expedition. 

6.  Novelties  of  any  kind,  though  I  think  it  would 
be  advisable  to  eliminate  any  combination  of 
sound  with  film. 


SUNDAY  SHOWS 

In  November,  the  Exhibitor's  Herald  of  Chi- 
cago made  public  the  result  of  an  investigation 
as  to  the  number  of  cities  and  towns  where  Sun- 
day shows  were  forbidden. 

Jay  M.  Schreck  reported  that  "the  reformer 
has  his  strangle  hold  on  the  small  town  and  not 
on  the  city." 

On  the  basis  of  the  Herald's  returns,  59,38  per 
cent  of  the  theaters  of  the  country  do  not  open 
on  the  Sabbath,  while  40.62  per  cent  operate. 

Had  the  survey  been  extended  to  the  cities  the 
returns  probably  would  have  shown  approximately 
50  per  cent  of  the  theaters  operating  and  50 
per  cent  dark.  Of  course,  this  is  but  an  estimate 
but  it  is  believed  to  be  a  fairly  accurate  one. 

In  many  states,  exhibitors  are  barred  from 
Sunday  exhibitions  by  blue  laws.  Again  the  the- 
ater man  in  the  smaller  communities  is  hit  harder 
than  his  brother  in  the  cities.  Prejudice  is  more 
deep-rooted  in  the  smaller  towns  and  for  that 
reason  state  blue  laws  remain  operative. 

Among  the  states  in  which  the  blue  laws  are 
in  force  are:  Delaware,  West  Virginia,  North 
Dakota,  Tennessee,  Arkansas,  North  Carolina, 
Kansas,  Pennsylvania,  South  Carolina.,  Missis- 
sippi, Maryland,  Vermont,  Virginia,  Ohio  and 
Kentucky 

This  does  not  mean,  however,  that  every  town 
and  city  in  these  states  is  closed  on  Sunday.

"The  Film  Mercury" 

— that  new  and  interesting  voice  in  the 
motion  picture  world — says  : 


The  war  is  still  on  between  the  motion 
picture  trade  papers.  The  main  argument 
seems  to  he  whether  or  not  the  exhibitor 
reports  published  in  the  Exhibitors  Herald  are 
worth  while  or  not.  The  Herald  claims  they 
are;  the  other  trade  journals  the  News,  the 
Exhibitors  Trade  Review  and  the  World,  claim 
they  are  rot. 

One  would  think  that  if  the  other  trade 
journals  were  so  sure  that  the  reports  were 
a  bad  feature  of  the  Herald  they  would  keep 
their  mouths'  shut  and  let  the  Herald  suffer 
because  of  its  poor  judgment. 

Why  all  this  sudden  interest  and  good  will 
in  the  Herald's  welfare?  If  the  Herald  wishes 
to  run  a  department  which  detracts  from  the 
publication  the  other  journals  ought  to  rejoice 
about  it. 

The  low  down  on  the  matter  is  that  the 
Herald  originated  the  exhibitor  reports  idea 
and  it  is  a  case  of  sour  grapes  with  the  other 
trade  journals.  They  are  not  big  enough  to 
use  the  idea  and  give  credit  to  the  Herald. 
So  they  knock  the  idea  and  then  use  a  varia- 
tion of  it  in  their  own  publication. 

The  Mercury  wields  no  special  club  for  the 
Herald.  The  Herald  means  nothing  in  our 
young  life.  Neither  do  any  of  the  other  pub- 
lications. In  all  probability  not  one  of  them 
would  scratch  a  pen  point  to  pay  respects  to 
the  Mercury  in  any  way. 

But  from  an  unbiased  viewpoint  it  does  seem 
that  there  is  much  of  value  in  the  exhibitor 
reports  published  in  the  Herald,  especially  for 
exhibitors,  whom  the  trade  papers  are  sup- 
posed to  be  representing  and  protecting  but 
who  have  been  forgotten  in  the  rush  after  the 
distributors'  advertising  accounts. 

On  the  other  hand,  the  Herald  was  in  error 
when  it  discontinued  its  reviews.  Those  ex- 
hibitors who  placed  no  reliance  in  the  Herald's 
reviews  need  not  have  read  them,  but  to  other 
exhibitors  the  reviews  undoubtedly  had  some 
value. — December  26,  1924  Issue.

When  All  the  Northwest  Buys 


UPON  the  realization  of  the  different,  though  simple,  advertising  and 
merchandising  problem  presented,  depends  successful  advertising  in 
the  northwest.    The  advertiser  who  realizes  that  the  territory  is 
composed  of  two  distinct  groups,  clears  in  a  leap  one  of  the  great  obstacles 
to  a  successful  advertising  campaign. 

Study  the  various  trade  papers.  In  them  you  will  find  a  reflection 
of  these  two  groups.  You  will  sec  clearly  that  Greater  Amusements, 
differing  from  the  other  publications  in  every  way,  will  satisfy  a  group 
to  which  the  other  publications  cannot  possibly  appeal,  and  influence  its 
buying  judgment.  This  group  is  the  great  army  of  small  town  exhibitors, 
who  comprise  80  per  cent  of  the  territory's  buying  power.  Because 
Greater  Amusements  caters  especially  to  its  wants,  this  group  depends 
solely  on  Greater  Amusements  for.  its  news  of  the  industry,  and  can  be 
reached  through  no  other  trade  medium. 

Exhibitors  in  the  larger  towns,  who  comprise  the  other  group,  find  in  Greater 
Amusements  a  publication  of  local  appeal — a  trade  journal  which  gives  them  all  the  news 
of  the  industry  they  want  to  know,  in  a  concise,  yet  thorough  manner,  without  compelling 
them  to  wade  through  a  sea  of  meaningless  publicity  to  get  at  the  heart  of  things.  And 
so,  though  many  members  of  this  group  are  reached  by  other  trade  publications.  Greater 
Amusements  is  their  first  choice,  a  preference  which  greatly  influences  their  buying 
power. 

The  advertiser  whose  sales  message  is  carried  in  Greater  Amusements  makes  known 
his  product  to  a  clientele  vital  to  the  success  of  that  product  in  the  Minneapolis, 
Milwaukee,  Des  Moines,  Omaha  and  Sioux  Falls  territories.

connected  with  an  electrical  switch.  The  device 
can  be  regulated  and  set  to  run  at  whatever 
speed  desired,  and  also  has  a  reverse  for  use 
in  making  double  exposures  and  dissolves. 

The  advantages  of  the  motor  is  that  it  does 
away  with  the  slightest  possible  movement  which 
might  result  from  the  swaying  of  the  photographer's 
body  as  he  turns  the  camera.  It  also  leaves  the 
camera  man  free  to  give  more  attention  to  lights 
while  the  scene  is  in  progress.  With  the  old 
method  the  cameraman  had  to  divide  his  at- 
tention between  his  apparatus  and  the  lights  on 
the  set. 

New  Lighting  System 

Fishbeck  also  is  the  inventor  of  a  new  system 
of  lighting,  in  which  a  preponderance  of  spot- 
lights are  used.  He  obtains  his  effects  of  high- 
lights and  shadows  by  employing  spotlights  as  an 
artist  uses  a  brush  and  colors  on  the  canvas. 
The  basic  idea  is  to  make  each  pictured  scene 
look  like  a  painting,  with  the  characters  standing 
out   in   bold  relief. 

With  this  new  system  of  lighting  black  is  rated 
at  zero  and  white  at  100,  and  never  does  the 
cameraman  go  below  twenty-five  in  light  intensity, 
or  above  seventy-five.  Each  character  in  the 
scene  is  given  just  the  necessary  amount  of  light 
to  be  effective. 


PERFECTS  NEW  STORM  EFFECT 

Arthur  E.  Shadur,  engineer  of  Universal  City, 
invented  a  marine  storm  effect  in  August.  The 
device  can  create  waves  and  other  storm  effects, 
on  a   large  enough  scale  to  toss  full-sized  ships 

around.   

NEW  MACHINE  DEVICE 

An  electrical  device  was  installed  in  several 
houses  in  Topeka,  Kan.,  in  October.  The  device, 
it  is  claimed,  will  prevent  film  from  igniting.  It 
its  an  electrically  controlled  dowser  containing  a 
motor  control  switch  which  shuts  off  the  light 
beam  and  breaks  the  motor  circuit  when  any  ir- 
regular or  impaired  condition  of  the  film  or 
working  parts  of  the  machine  occurs. 


PERFECTS  NEW  CAMERA 

Prof.  James  Worthington  stated  in  March  that 
he  had  perfected  a  camera  which  takes  perfect 
pictures  by  starlight.  Worthington  said  he  was 
perfecting  a  camera  capable  of  making  16,000 
exposure  a  second  utilizing  the  ideas  incor- 
porated in  his  latest  discovery.  Although  admit- 
ting it  possibly  has  possibilities  in  motion  pic- 
tures photography,  Worthington  asserts  its  greatest 
value  will  be  in  astronomical  pbotographly. 


ANOTHER  BRAY  INVENTION 

Brayco,  a  scientifically  constructed  still-picture 
projector  which  uses  strips  of  standard  size  film, 
instead  of  slides  was  invented  by  J.  R.  Bray, 
of  Bray  Screen  Products.  Inc.,  New  York.  The 
device,  which  is  aimed  for  visual  education  and 
home  entertainment,  weighs  less  than  five  pounds 
and  may  be  attached  to  any  electric  outlet  and 
has  a  specially  designed  resistance  cord  to  elimi- 
nate the  use  of  a  rheostat.  Films  for  this  pro- 
jector are   furnished   from   the   Bray  Library.

Comedies 

Exhibitors  failed  to  record  the  best  box  office  comedies  to  the  extent 
hoped  for.  Whether  this  was  due  to  lack  of  interest  is  not  known,  but 
only  about  600  exhibitors  recorded  their  ideas  on  the  short  subjects.  For 
whatever  value  the  list  may  be,  however,  it  is  presented  below:

Japan  are  controlled  by  a  single  concern,  which 
also  produces  about  20  native  pictures  a  month. 
Despite  the  havoc  created  by  the  recent  earth- 
quake, the  Japanese  film  industry  is  in .  a  flour 
ishing  condition  and  many  new  theaters  arc 
being  built.  Raw  film  is  now  being  manufac-

What   the  National  Academy   of   Visual  Instruc- 
tion is. 

The  National  Academy  of  Visual  Instruction 
is  an  organization  interested  in  a  wider,  more 
intelligent    and    more    systematic    use    of  visual 


aids:  in  short,  in,  the  development  of  visual  edu- 
cation as  an  art  and  science. 

The  Academy  is  not  engaged  in  promoting  visual 
education  commercially.  Active  membership  and 
the  control  of  the  Academy  and  its  actions  are 
vested  solely  in  those  engaged  in  educational, 
semi-educational,  or  welfare  work,  and  who  are 
actual  users  of  or  are  directing  the  use  of  visual 
aids  for  instructional  purposes.  No  companies, 
dealers,  agents  or  persons  financially  interested  in 
the  sale  of  visual-instruction  materials  shall  be 
eligible  to  active  membership. 

1.  Purpose 

The  purpose  of  this  association  is  to  establish 
and  maintain  an  organization  through  which 
schools  and  other  educational  institutions,  chur 
ches,  parent-teacher  associations,  clubs,  welfare 
organizations,  and  societies  engaged  in  educational 
or  semi-educational  work  may  co-operate  in  fur- 
thering better  production  of  and  a  more  systema- 
tic and  intelligent  use  of  visual  aids,  such  as  lan- 
tern slides,  motion-picture  films,  charts,  art  col- 
lections, exhibits,  and  models;  to  prosecute  re 
search  in  visual-instruction  methods;  to  investi- 
gate sources  of  supply,  to  establish  a  clearing- 
house of  information,  to  devise  methods  of  co- 
operative buying  and  bargaining,  to  work  out 
standards  of  methods  and  practice,  and  to  pro- 
mote the  knowledge  and  use  of  better  films.

COL.  E.  H.  GREEN  LINKS  RADIO  TO 
MOVIES 

The  New  York  Times,  Sept.  14,  gives  an  ac 
count  of  Col.  E.  H.  Greene's  experiments  with 
radio  and  the  .laboratory  accident  that  may  be 
the  fore  runner  to  motion  pictures  via  the  ether 
waves.  The  significant  facts  are  herewith  given: 
*  *  *  the  workers  in  the  private  laboratory  of 
Cploned  E.  H.  K.  Greene,  son  of  the  late  Hetty 
Greene  *  *  ♦  have  furnished  definite  evidence 
that  radio  photography  can  he  achieved.  The  first 
object  produced  was  a  lowly  monkey  wrench.  That 
was  the  accident.  Then  came  intensive  experiment. 
Now  an  image  of  the  human  figure  can  be  trans- 
ferred by  radio  waves  to  a  celluloid  plate.  The 
next  concern  is  to  develop  a  method  of  retaining 
this  impression.  At  present  the  image  disappears 
with  tile  chemicals  that  wash  over  the  plate. 

But  the  image  is  clearly  seen,  reproduced  in  a 
greenish  color.  The  features  may  be  recognized, 
the  dress,  manner  and  gait.  If  the  person  photo- 
graphed walks  about,  his  actions  can  be  observed 
on  the  celluloid  plate.  Even  the  act  of  speaking 
does  not  escape,  the  observer's  eye.  Only  one 
restriction  exists,  so  far  as  perfect  visibility  is 
concerned.    The  action  must  be  slow. 

Then  the  chemical  bath  is  shut  off  and  the 
celluloid  plate  remains  as  it  was,  without  a  trace 
of  the  figures  that  lived  there  a  moment  before. 
So  far  no  method  has  been  hit  upon  of  retaining 
the  images  registered  on  the  plate.  But  experi- 
ment has  shown  that  they  may  be  transferred 
almost  any  distance.  To  express  the  matter  dif- 
ferently, the  question  of  distance  does  not  seem 
to  be  an  issue.  For  experimental  purposes  the 
photographs  are  projected  from  1,800  to  2.000  feet, 
and  Colonel  Greene  believes  that  the  problem  of 
distance  is  one  of  power  only. 

What  the  Monkey  Wrench  Revealed 

First  sight  of  the  monkey  wrench  that  led  to 
these  developments  and  greater  possibilities  was 
an  event  not  unlike  the  famous  apple  that  fell 
upon  the  head  of  Newton.  For  some  time  Colonel 
Greene  has  conducted  research  into  radio  trans- 
mission from  WMAF.  his  own  station  at  South 
Dartmouth  at  the  mouth  of  Buzzard's  Bay.  One  of 
the  subjects  especially  under  investigation  is  the 
elimination  of  static  interference.  In  following 
various  scientific  clues  the  reproduction  of  a 
shadowy   monkey  wrench  appeared   from  nowhere. 

"Here,"  said  Colonel  Greene,  "what  does  this 
mean?  Where  is  that  monkey  wrench,  and  why 
does  the  reflection  appear  here?" 

Prompt  inquiry  showed  that  what  seemed  to 
be  a  reflection  in  reality  was  a  radio  photograph. 
The  reproduction  of  the  wrench  had  been  caught 
up  and  transferred  by  the  Hertzian  waves  from 
a  distant  point.  Then  came  the  second  discovery. 
Under  the  same  conditions  and  with  a  little  manip- 
ulation it  was  possible  to  reproduce  the  human 
figure.  But  the  importance  of  these  events  did 
not  culminate  there.  Not  only  could  the  figure 
be  projected:  it  could  be  reproduced  in  motion. 
Thus  the  first  radio  movie  was  sent  and  received. 

But  the  means  of  reception  are  yet  so  hazy  and 
so  little  understood  that  many  questions  await 
settlement  before  a  permanent  reproduction  can 
be  effected.  Colonel  Greene  is  confident  that  it 
will  be  achieved;  perhaps  in  a  short  while,  possibly 
years  of  experiment  must  elapse.  Just  now  he 
is  superintending  the  construction  of  a  new  labora- 
tory where  the  work  will  lie  pushed  forward  with 
311  the  speed  scientific  inquiry  permits. 

The  fundamental  ideas  have  been  supplied  in 
considerable  measure  by  a  college  professor,  an 
expert  in  optics,  who  now  has  the  assistance  of 
several  skilled  men.  Their  efforts  have  excelled 
expectations  and  it  may  be  believed  that  nothing 
will  go  untried  which  can  serve  to  realize  the  final 
result. 

Radio  Photos  Assured 

"I  see  no  reason  to  wonder  at  the  possibility 
of  sending  moving  pictures  by  radio,"  said  Colonel 
Greene.  "Certainly  that  achievement  will  be  less 
remarkable  than  the  first  message  dispatched  with- 
out wires.  Or  if  we  go  back  further,  perhaps 
the  first  dots  and  dashes  sent  over  a  wire  really 
marked  the  high  point  of  human  ingenuity  in  that 
direction.  Having  convinced  ourselves  that  we 
could  reproduce  sound  by  wire,  it  merely  remained 
to  dispense  with  the  wire  and  go  ahead."  *  *  * 


FREIGHT   RATES   FROM   NEW  YORK  PER 
100  POUNDS 

The  Motion  Picture  Prods.  &  Dists.  of  America, 
Inc.,  through  its  Chairman  of  Transportation,  P. 
11.  Stilson,  issues  the  following  table  of  freight 
rates  on  films  and  printed  matter  from  New  York 
to  the  various  exchange  centers. 

While  these  rates  are  secured  from  competent 
authorities  and  it  is  fair  to  assume  they  will  hold 
firm,  still  they  are  subject  to  change  and  without 
recourse.    Rates  are  for  cents  per  hundred  pounds.

affirming  the  order  of  the  Commission  entered 
against  the  Fox  Film  Corporation.  This  order 
to  cease  and  desist  was  reviewed  at  length  in  thr 
1924  Year  Hook  and  is  reported  in  6  F.  T.  C. 
Decisions  191.  The  court  decision  is  Fox  Film 
Corporation  vs.  Federal  Trade  Commission,  296 
Fed.  .15.3.  It  is  held  that  the  Fox  Corporation 
was  engaged  in  interstate  commerce  and  therefore 
came  within  the  jurisdiction  of  the  Commission, 
and  that  it  is  unfair  competition  for  a  producer 
to  reissue  old  pictures  under  new  titles  as  new 
photoplays  and  advertise  such  pictures  as  new 
pictures  not  previously  exhibited,  and  induce  the 
public  to  believe  them  to  be  new  pictures.  No 
petition  for  a  writ  of  certiorari  to  the  United  States 
Supreme  Court  has  been  filed.  Early  in  1918 
the  Commission  commenced  an  investigation  of 
this  practice,  and  as  a  result  thereof  has  from 
time  to  time  issued  complaints  against  various 
concerns,  and,  after  trials  on  the  merits,  has  en- 
tered numerous-  orders  to  cease  and  desist  similar 
to  the  order  in  the  Fox  case.  This  decision 
of  the  United  States  Circuit  Court  of  Appeals 
fully  and  completely  sustains  the  Commission's 
position  as  to  this  method  of  competition. 

The  case  against  the  Eastman  Kodak  Com- 
I  any,  ct  al,  reviewed  in  the  1924  Year  Book, 
was  submitted  to  the  Commission  upon  an  agreed 
statement  of  facts,  and  on  the  18th  of  April,  1924, 
the  following  order  was  entered  against  the  re 
spon dents : 

CEASE  and  DESIST  from  conspiring, 
combining,  confederating,  agreeing  and  co- 
operating between  or  among  themselves  to 
hinder  and  restrain  competition  in  the  manu- 
facture and  sale  of  posicive  raw  cinemato- 
graph film  stock  and  to  maintain  and  extend 
or  attempt  to  maintain  and  extend  the  mon- 
opoly of  the  Eastman  Kodak  Company  in  the 
distribution  and  sale  of  positive  raw  cinemato- 
graph film  stock,  in  interstate  and  foreign 
commerce,  by 

1st.  The  acquisition  and  equipment  by  the 
Eastman  Kodak  Company  of  the  Paragon 
Laboratory,  the  G.  M,  Laboratory  and  the 
Sen  Jacq  Laboratory,  whose  combined  ca- 
pacity equals  the  market  demand  for  printing 
and  developing  positive  prints  of  cinemato- 
graph films  from  exposed  and  developed  cin- 
ematograph films,  for  the  purpose  of  extend- 
ing its  business  to  include  the  making  and 
selling  of  such  prints. 

2nd.  The  use  by  the  Eastman  Kodak  Com- 
pany of  the  ownership  ami  possession  of  the 
said  Paragon,  G.  M.  and  Sen  Jacq  labora- 
tories and  their  equipment  and  capacity  for 
producing  positive  prints  of  cinematograph 
films  from  exposed  and  developed  negative 
cinematograph  films  to  rnduce,  compel  and 
coerce  the  Allied  Film  Laboratories  Associa- 
tion, Inc.,  and  its  members,  to  use  in  their 
laboratories  for  the  manufacture  of  positive 
prints  of  cinematograph  films,  exclusively, 
American  made  positive  raw  cinematograph 
film  stock  of  which  the  said  Eastman  Kodak 
Company  has  a  monopoly  in  the  manufacture 
and  sale  thereof. 

3rd.  The  agreement  or  understanding  by 
and  between  members  of  the  Allied  Film 
Laboratories  Association,  Inc.,  and  the  East- 
man Kodak  Company  that  the  said  members 
will  use  American  made  positive  raw  cinema- 
tograph film  stock,  of  which  said  Eastman 
Kodak  Company  has  a  monopoly  in  the  manu- 
facture and  sale  thereof,  exclusively,  and  par- 
ticularly to  the  exclusion  of  foreign  manufac- 
tured positive  raw  cinematograph  film  stock, 
provided  the  Eastman  Kodak  Company  will 
not  operate  commercially  the  said  Paragon, 
G.  M.  and  Sen  Jacq  laboratories  in  competi- 
tion with  the  Laboratories  operated  by  said 
members  of  the  Allied  Film  Laboratories  As- 
sociation, Inc. 


/ 

4th.  The  agreement  or  understanding  entered 
into  by  and  between  the  Eastman  Kodak 
Company  and  the  members  of  the  Allied  Film 
Laboratories  Association,  Inc.,  that  the  East- 
man Kodak  Company  will  not  operate  com- 
mercially the  Paragon,  G.  M.  and  Sen  Jacq 
laboratories  in  the  manufacture  and  sale  of 
positive  prints  of  cinematograph  films  in  com- 
petition with  the  laboratoncs  operated  by  said 
members,  provided  that  said  members  use  and 
continue  to  use  American  made  positive  raw 
cinematograph  film  stock,  of  which  the  East- 
man Kodak  Company  has  a  monopoly  in  the 
manufacture  and  sale  tlit-reof,  exclusively  in 
the  manufacture  of  positive  prints  or  cinema- 
tograph films  from  exposed  negative  cinemato 
graph  films  and  the  sale  thereof. 

5th.  The  continued  ownership  by  the  East- 
man Kodak  Company  of  the  Paragon,  G.  M. 
and  Sen  Jacq  laboratories  and  the  mainten 
ance  of  the  same  in  readiness  for  immediate 
operation  for  the  production  of  positive  prints 
of  cinematograph  films,  or  any  other  dominant 
control  of  the  production,  or  capacity  for 
production,  of  positive  prints  of  cinematograph 
films  from  exposed  negative  cinematograph 
films. 

6th.  Utilizing  any  other  equivalent  means, 
not  hereinbefore  stated,  to  accomplish  the 
object  of  unfairly  forestalling,  preventing,  hin- 
dering or  restraining  the  manufacture  and 
sale  of  positive  raw  cinematograph  film  stock 
and  the  making  of  positive  prints  of  cinemato- 
graph films  from  exposed  negative  cinemato- 
graph films,  or  the  sale  thereof,  in  interstate 
and   foreign  commerce. 

IT   IS  FURTHER  ORDERED,  that  for 
the  purpose  of  preventing  the  maintenance 
and  extension  of  the  monopoly  of  the  East- 
man Kodak  Company  in  the  manufacture  and 
sale  of  positive  raw  cinematograph  film  stock 
to  the  use  thereof  in  making  positive  prints 
of  cinematograph  films  and  of  restoring  com- 
petitive freedom  in  the  distribution  and  sale 
of  positive  raw  cinematograph  film  stock,  the 
Eastman  Kodak  Company  shall,  with  all  due 
diligence,  sell  and  convey  the  said  Paragon. 
G.   M.  and  Sen  Jacq  laboratories  to  parties 
not  connected  directly  or  indirectly  in  interest 
with  the  Eastman  Kodak  Company. 
This  case  will  be  reported  in  Volume  7  of  the 
Commission's    Decisions.     From    this   decision  of 
the   Commission  certain  of  the  respondents  have 
appealed  to   the  United   States   Circuit   Court  of 
Appeals  for  the  Second  Circait,  and  a  court  de- 
cision is  expected  during  the  coming  year. 

In  November,  1923,  the  Commission  concluded 
the  taking  of  testimony  in  support  of  the  charges 
in  the  complaint  against  Famous  Players- Lasky 
Corporation  et  al,  and  rested  its  case.  In  Janu- 
ary, 1924,  the  resopndents  commenced  the  in- 
troduction of  their  evidence  in  support  of  their 
various  answers,  at  Jacksonville,  Fla.,  after  which 
hearings  were  held  at  New  Orleans,  Dallas,  At- 
lanta, New  York,  Cleveland,  St.  Louis,  Oklahoma 
City,  Denver,  Los  Angeles,  San  Francisco,  Chi- 
cago and  Charlotte,  N.  C. 

It  is  anticipated  that  the  case  will  be  submitted 
to  the  Commission  for  final  determination  early  in 
the  coming  year. 

In  the  case  against  Films  Distributors  League, 
Inc.,  Docket  913,  which  has  been  heretofore  re- 
viewed in  the  Year  Book,  all  of  the  testimony 
has  been  taken,  the  Examiner  has  made  his  re- 
port, and  the  brief  of  counsel  for  the  Commis- 
sion has  been  filed.  This  is  the  last  of  the  re 
issue  cases  pending  before  the  Commission,  and 
an  early  decision  is  expected. 

During  the  last  year  no  new  cases  of  special 
interest  to  the  motion  picture  industry  have  been 
filed  by   the  Commission. 

Citations  to  decisions  renewed  in  the  Year 
Book,  1924,  are  as  follows:

REPORT  OF  THE  PICTURE  COMMITTEE 
By  Mrs.  Charles  L.  Davidson,  Chairman 

The  Indianapolis  Indorsers  of  Photoplays  main- 
tain a  voluntary  picture  committee  composed  of 
12  regular  and  IS  special  visitors  co-operating 
with  the  managements  of  the  motion  picture 
theaters,  and  are  meeting  with  satisfactory  re- 
sults. Through  the  courtesy  of  the  management 
of  the  picture  houses  we  have  two  weekly  ad- 
missions for  each  picture  house  and  a  special 
pass  from  the  Circle  Theater  which  is  used  in 
rotation  by  the  members. 

There  are  eight  first-release  houses  in  the  down- 
town ditsrict :  Ohio,  Colonial,  Apollo,  Circle, 
Crystal,  Isis,  Mr.  Smith's  and  Palace.  These  are 
visited  each  week  at  the  first  showing,  making 
a  total  number  of  visits  to  all  houses  450  for 
the  year.  There  are  seven  second-class  houses 
in  the  downtown  district.  They  are:  Royal, 
Keystone,  Palms,  Gem,  Manhattan,  Annex  and 
Lenwood.  These  houses  show  western  thrillers 
and  serials  at  the  nominal  price  of  ten  cents. 
They  are  well  patronized,  wetl  lighted,  and  noth- 
ing objectionable  has  been  found  during  the  year. 
The  Picture  Committee  holds  meetings  once  each 
month  and  oftener  if  necessary.  At  these  meet- 
ings the  pictures  are  discussed  and,  when  indorsed, 
placed  on  the  monthly  bulletins.  Whenever  cuts 
are  recommended  by  the  Indorsers  in  any  pic- 
ture the  exhibitor  is  consulted  and,  in  most  in- 
stances, consents  to  the  request  made.  For  in- 
stance, in  the  pictures,  "One  Week  of  Love," 
"'Rich  Men's  Wives"  and  "The  Pride  of  Pala- 
mor,"  cuts  were  made  at  the  request  of  the 
committee.  After  the  exhibitor  makes  the  cuts 
the  producer  is  notified  by  the  Indorsers  of  the 
cuts  desired  and,  in  many  instances,  they  are  per- 
manent cuts,  making  the  pictures  indorsable. 

During  the  survey  we  found  that  many  of  the 
low  priced  smaller  theaters  could  not  show  all 
"A"  class  pictures  on  account  of  the  high  cost. 
The  suggestion  was  made  that  we  classify  pictures 
on  the  indorsed  list,  as  follows: 

Starred  Pictures — Excellent. 
"A"-Class — Good. 
"B"- Class — Medium. 

This  plan  enables  them  to  give  a  starred  or 
"A"-Class  picture,  filling  in  with  the  best  of 
the  less  expensive. 

A  marked  improvement  in  the  western  pictures 
has  been  noticed  the  last  year.  Also  such  stars 
as  Tom  Mix,  Harry  Carey  and  Charles  Jones, 
whose  pictures  were  formerly  below  the  standard, 
have  shown  progress  and  they  are  now  playing 
good,  thrilling  western  pictures  that  are  greatly 
in  demand.  Two  successful  serials  are  "The 
Leather  Pushers."  an  athletic  picture,  and  "In 
the  Days  of  Buffalo  Bill,"  a  historical  serial. 
F.ach  episode  is  a  comnMe  story  in  itself.

There  are  35  picture  houses  in  the  City  of 
Indianapolis,  including  neighborhood  houses,  and 
4  36  in  the  State. 

The  Indorsers  have  been  invited  to  see  38 
special  screenings  during  the  year.  Some  of  the 
best  were  "The  Third  Alarm,"  "Voice  of  the 
Land,"  "Skin  Deep"  and  "Cardigan"  (sponsored 
by  the  American  Legion),  ">ianook  of  the  North," 
"To  Have  and  To  Hold,"  "Timothy's  Quest," 
and  "Silas  Marner." 

The  number  of  pictures  seen  in  the  year  1921 
was  480,  of  this  number  390  were  indorsed.  Six 
years  ago  the  number  seen  was  180  and  90 
indorsed,  owing  to  the  fact  that  there  were  fewer 
picture  houses  and  fewer  pictures  being  made  at 
that  time.  This  year  (1922-23)  Ihere  were  550 
pictures  seen  and  468  indorsed.  Of  this  number 
33  were  starred.  Some  of  the  best  productions 
were:  "Smitin'  Thru."  "Little  Lord  Fauntelroy," 
"Our  Mutual  Friend."  "Silas  Marner,"  "Sonny," 
"The  Masquerader,"  "Rack  Home  and  Broke." 
"The  Hottentot,"  "Our  Leading  Citizen,"  "Monte 
Cristo."  "Grandma's  Boy."  "When  Knighthood 
Was  in  Flower,"  "Dr.  Jack,"  "Peg  o'  My  Heart.' 
"Robin  Hood,"  and  "Daddy."  The  pictures  that 
were  not  indorsed  during  the  year  did  not  come 
up  to  the  standard  set  by  the  committee. 

There  is  less  to  criticize  in  the  pictures  today 
than  two  years  ago.  Bed  room  scenes  have  almost 
entirely  disappeared  as  has  also  the  once  popular 
vampire  picture— THAT  WHICH  IS  EVIL 
FALLS  OF  ITS  OWN  WETGHT;  THAT 
WHICH  IS  GOOD  PERMANENTLY  PRE- 
VAILS. 

Public  taste  regarding  pictures  has  changed. 
Only  during  the  last  few  years  has  the  motion 
picture  begun  to  show  famous  books  and  cos- 
tume plays,  which  in  previous  years  would  hare 
been  failures.  "Monte  Cristo,"  "The  Three  Mus- 
keteers," and  "The  Prisoner  of  Zenda"  have  al- 
ways been  popular  stories,  but  since  they  have 
appeared  on  the  screen,  libraries  have  had  to  buy 
many  additional  copies.  A  number  of  people  who 
read  very  little  are  introduced  in  this  way  to 
good  books.  In  one  city  the  film  of  Peter  Ibbct 
son  caused  a  demand  for  the  book  unequalled 
by  any  "movie  novel." 

In  a  report  from  the  Fort  Wayne  Better  Film 
Committee,  pictures  classified  between  tlrfe  dates 
of  March  1921  and  January  1923  are  given  as 
follows : 

Number  of  A  Plus  Pictures  (exceptionally 

fine)    23 

Number  of  A  Pictures  (above  average)..  125 

Number  of  B  Pictures  (average)    149 

Number  of  C  Pictures  (mediocre)    99 

Number  of  Rejected  Pictures  (undesirable 

in  some  way)   '   72 

Number  of  Actually  Bad  Pictures  (can't 

say  exactly,  not  very  many.

The  Better  Films  Movement  in  1924 

By  Alice  Belton  Evans,  Secretary  National  Committee  Etc. 


(In  this  article  no  attempt  is  made  to  repeat 
he  information  contained  in  the  article  on  the 
Hetter  Films  Movement  appearing;  in  "Film  Year 
Hook,  1924.''  to  which,  therefore,  readers  of  the 
present  article  are  also  referred.) 

The  Hetter  Films  Movement  in  1924  is  character- 
ized less  by  the  wide  increase  in  the  number  of 
communities  newlv  taking  it  up  in  any  organized, 
way  than  by  an  increase  in  the  seriousness  and  ef- 
fectiveness of  endeavor  on  the  part  of  groups  which 
had  already  become  active  in  it. 

It  is  encouraging  to  find,  for  instance,  that  the 
committees  formed  several  years  ago  in  numerous 
cities  of  the  Southeast  continue  to  function  with 
vigor;  that  the  work  in  Birmingham  has  been  so 
successful  as  to  inspire  the  formation  of  a  state 
committee  for  better  films  for  Alabama,  and  that 
as  a  result  a  new  committee  has  already  been  es- 
tablished and  is  functioning  in  Selma,  Ala. 

In  Schenectady,  N.  Y.,  the  motion  picture  chair- 
man of  the  Schenectady  Federation  of  Women's 
Clubs,  Mrs.  H.  S.  Burnham,  was  so  impressed 
with  the  importance  of  having  an  understanding  of 
motion  pictures  and  a  grasp  of  the  problem  affect- 
ing better  films  committees  and  exhibitors,  that 
she  devoted  her  summer  to  study  and  research  along 
these  lines  in  New  York  City.  Through  Mrs. 
liurnham's  efforts  notice  has  been  given  to  the 
local  public  this  Fall  of  exceptionally  good  pic- 
tures, on  the  basis  of  the  National  Committee's 
advices,  and  before  this  goes  to  press  a  meeting 
will  have  been  held  under  the  auspices  of  the 
Federation,  at  which  a  comprehensive  plan  of  better 
films  activity  and  cooperation  with  the  National 
Committee  for  Better  Films  will  have  been  pre- 
sented and  acted  upon. 

Washington,  D.  C,  is  fortunate  in  having  had, 
this  past  year,  what  is  virtually  a  better  films 
committee  in  the  presence  of  Mrs.  Harriet  Hawley 
Locher,  head  of  the  Public  Relations  Department 
of  the  Crandall  Theaters,  who  has  done  fine 
public  service  in  arranging  special  children's  mat- 
inees and  also  performances  of  educational  films 
for  school  children  in  cooperation  with  the  schools 
and  the  Department  of  the  Interior.  She  has  also 
issued  special  notices  concerning  the  fine  pictures 
for  the  general  audience.  A  similar  department 
of  public  relations  has  been  established  by  the 
Saenger  Amusement  Company  in  New  Orleans  un- 
der the  direction  of  Mrs.  Elizabeth  Werlein,  who, 
like  Mrs.  Locher,  was  drawn  from  the  ranks 
of  prominent  clubwomen. 

California's  committees  are  thriving.  That  in 
l.os  Angeles,  onlv  two  years  old,  has  attracted  spe- 
cial attention.  Situated  in  the  center  of  the  mo 
Hon  picture  industry,  unusual  facilities  have  been 
extended  the  committee  to  pre  view  the  pictures  at 
the  exchanges — a  method,  which  of  course,  is  prac- 
ticable in  but  few  places.  The  committee,  which 
belongs  to  the  Motion  Picture  Department  of  the 
California  Federation  of  Women's  Clubs,  consists 
of  the  board  of  education  and  many  organizations, 
and  its  recommendations  are  posted  in  clubs,  librar- 
ies, schools,  etc.,  and  are  published  in  the  news- 
papers. The  Los  Angeles  committee  reports,  how- 
ever, endorsement  of  8(1  per  cent  of  the  pictures 
submitted — indicating  a  much  less  critical  attitude 
toward  the  films  than  that  of  the  National  Com- 
mittee for  Better  Films  and  a  few  other  commit 
tees  also  exercising  independent  judgment.  The 
committee  has  instituted  a  movement  for  children's 
matinees  in  the  suburban  theaters,  interviewing 
101  managers  on  the  subject-and  reporting  progress 
toward  their  widespread  adoption. 

Children's    Matinees  ImpotUnt 

Children's  matinees,  in  fact  continue  to  be  an 
important  function  of  better  films  work,  and  in 
some  places,  as  in  Albany,  N.  Y.,  where  they  have 
been  given  for  ten  years  under  the  leadership  of 
Mrs.  F.  W.  Clark  of  the  Mother's  Club,  thei 
absorb  the  local  efforts.  An  interesting  outgrowth 
of  the  children's  matinee  work  in  Atlanta  has  been 


the  establishment  by  the  Atlanta  Better  Films  Com- 
mittee, of  which  Mrs.  Alonzo  Richardson  is  presi- 
dent, of  special  matinees  for  colored  children.  The 
programs  are  selected  with  the  same  care  as  the 
programs  for  the  white  children,  reliable  colored 
chaperones  are  provided,  etc.  This  example  has 
been  followed  by  similar  matinees  for  colored  chil- 
dren in  Chatanooga. 

While  under  the  inspiration  of  the  committees 
in  Los  Angeles,  Stockton,  Berkeley,  Oakland  and 
Palo  Alto,  Calif.,  several  new  committees  have 
sprung  up  in  that  state,  it  is  in  the  Northwest 
that  the  most  decided  extension  of  the  organized 
Better  Films  Movement  appears  this  year  to  have 
taken  place,  in  sentiment  created  at  least,  if  not  as 
yet  in  completed  organization.     This  is  the  story. 

Last  year  Mr.  Orion  P.  Winford,  the  energetic 
young  secretary  of  the  chamber  of  commerce  in 
Virginia,  Minn.,  established  a  better  film  committee 
to  work  in  cooperation  with  the  National  Committee 
for  Better  1'  ilms.  They  received  the  selected  lists 
of  the  National  Committee,  checked  these  up  with 
the  local  bookings  and  secured  the  printing  in 
the  newspaper  of  a  weekly  "Photoplay  Guide"  to 
these  selected  good  films,  just  prior  to  their  exhi- 
bition. The  publication  of  such  a  newspaper  guide 
based  on  the  national  Committee's  selections  was 
not  a  new  idea — such  guides  are  published  year 
in  and  year  out  in  Birmingham,  Atlanta,  Jackson- 
ville, etc. — but  it  was  new  in  the  Nortbwest  and 
became  an  immediate  success  in  Virginia.  The 
exhibitors  were  grateful  for  this  valuable  public 
ity  given  to  their  good  films,  and  the  citizens  were 
grateful  for  receiving,  for  the  first  time,  reliable 
advance  information  about  the  good  pictures.  Es- 
pecially helpful  was  their  classification  for  different 
age-groups.  In  the  year  and  z  halt  in  which  this 
system  has  been  in  operation  the  committee  testi- 
fies that  not  once  has  dissatisfaction  been  registered 
with  any  of  the  films  to  which  the  public  has 
thus  been  directed. 

News  of  the  Virginia  Better  Films  Committee 
spread  to  surrounding  territory  and  Mr.  Winford 
found  himself  asked  to  help  from  similar  commit- 
tees in  neighboring  towns.  At  the  same  time,  the 
National  Board  of  Review,  which  had  long  felt  the 
need  of  a  field  representative,  especially  for  its 
affiliated  committees,  the  National  Committee  for 
Better  Fi'ms,  invited  Mr.  Winford  to  serve  in 
that   capacity  and  he  accepted. 

Northwest  Starting 

So  far  embryo  committees  have  been  established 
in  six  of  the  smaller  cities  of  Minnesota,  while 
a  meeting  was  held  in  St.  Paul,  of  representatives 
of  many  organizations,  looking  toward  the  forma- 
tion of  a  community  group  according  to  a  plan 
presented  by  Mr.  Winford,  and  there  is  good 
prospect  that  this  will  soon  be  functioning-^-com- 
bining  a  program  of  study  of  the  motion  picture 
with  local  endorsement  of  selected  films.  In  Wis- 
consin the  state  exhibitors'  association  at  their 
convention  in  August  voted  to  cooperate  with  The 
National  Board  of  Review  and  the  National  Com- 
mittee in  promotion  of  the  Better  Films  Movement 
in  every  possible  way.  At  Madison.  Wis.,  where 
there  had  existed  a  sentiment  tending  to  favor 
lefal  censorship,  at  a  large  meeting  of  clubwomen 
called  especially  to  hear  Mr.  Winford,  it  was  the 
concensus  of  opinion  expressed  after  exhaustive 
Questioning  and  discussion,  that  the  plan  of  activity 
nroposed  by  the  National  Committee  offered  the 
better  hope  of  accomplishment  in  influencing  fine 
motion    picture  exhibitions. 

The  Indiana  Indorsers  of  Motion  Pictures  and 
the  National  Board  of  Review  and  National  Com- 
mittee for  Better  Films  came  together  on  the  same 
platform  at  a  meeting  of  the  Cincinnati  Council 
on  Motion  Pictures  where,  through  representatives, 
each  presented  its  work. 

Other  cities,  which  have  groups  prominent  in 
better  films  activitv  are  Kansas  Citv.  Mo..  Jack- 
sonville. Fla.,  Cleveland  and  Akron,  O.  (the  latter  a 


601 


new  committee  formed  by  the  D.  A.  R.),  Asheville, 
(  harlotte,  Durham  and  Wilmington,  N.  C.  Charles- 
ton, Columbia  and  Spartanburg,  S.  C,  Chat- 
tanooga, Tenn.,  Anniston  and  iWacon,  Ala.,  San 
Antonio,  Texas,  and  Rutherford,  N.  J.  The  com- 
mittee in  the  latter  place  is  the  first  to  be  located 
in  the  environs  of  New  York  City.  Formed  on  the 
initiative  of  the  local  Parent-Teacher  Association,  it 
is  working  closely  with  the  National  Committee  for 
Better  Films,  in  an  affiliated  capacity,  and  though 
it  has  been  functioning  only  a  few  months  the 
results  are  alreadv  apparent  in  that  the  exhibitions 
now  booked  are  composed  almost  entirely  of 
"selected  films."  The  weekly  Photoplay  Guide  to 
these  published  in  the  newspaper  is  followed  by  the 
public  interest. 

Activity  of   National  Organizations 

Several  other  national  organizations  besides 
the  National  Committee  for  Better  Films  have  been 
concerned  this  past  year  in  promoting  the  Better 
Films  Movement.  First  among  these  is  the  Motion 
Picture  Producers  and  Distributors  of  America. 
Through  its  Committee  on  Public  Relations,  of 
which  Col.  Jason  S.  Joy  is  executive  secretary, 
much  encouragment  to  the  Better  Films  Movement 
has  been  given.  This  Fall  Col.  Joy  has  undertaken 
to  strengthen  the  work  in  the  South  by  a  tour  of 
Southern  cities.  The  association  has  also  used  its 
influence  with  the  producers  to  avoid  types  of 
pictures  which  have  provoked  extensive  criticism, 
particularly  those  based  on  questionable  books  and 
plays.  It  has  also  worked  out  a  series  of  complete 
programs  for  children's  matinees  which  will  be 
available  nationally  through  the  regular  exchanges, 
thus  greatly  facilitating  the  extension  of  children's 
matinees. 

The  contribution  of  the  General  Federation  of 
Women's  Clubs  has  also  been  largely  one  of  en- 
couragment for  the  Better  Films  Movement.  Mrs. 
Harry  Lilly,  when  motion  picture  chairman,  advo- 
cated the  adoption  of  the  "Committee  of  Ten"  plan 
of  better  films  activity  until  its  promotion  was 
abandoned  by  the  Associated  Exhibitors,  the  film 
distributing  company  which  had  worked  it  out,  on 
account  of  the  heavy  expense  involved.  Through 
Mrs.  Lilly  also  an  interesting  program  on  motion 
pictures  was  provided  at  the  Biennial  Convention 
of  the  General  Federation  at  Los  Angeles  in  June. 
As  there  is  still  among  many  of  the  Federation 
members  a  strong  sentiment  for  legalized  censor- 
ship, this  subject  naturally  received  a  place  on  the 
program  along  with  the  constructive  work  for  better 
films.  The  two  resolutions  adopted  called  for  a 
strengthening  of  the  common  law  as  affecting  the 
exhibition  of  objectionable  matter  in  motion  pictures, 
and  for  cooperation  with  the  Bureau  of  Education 
in  Washington  in  investigation  of  the  subject  of 
Federal  control. 

The  National  Catholic  Welfare  Council,  on  the 
other  hand,  through  Chas.  A.  McMahon,  director 
of  its  motion  picture  bureau,  opposes  censorship 
and  issues  its  own  "white  lists"  of  pictures,  em 
phasizing  that  patronage  of  the  good  films  is  the 
surest  way  of  improving  the  quality  of  motion  pic- 
tures. 

The  National  D.  A.  R.  have  a  motion  picture 
chairman  for  every  state,  and  various  local  chap- 
ters have  either  taken  the  lead  in  better  films 
work  or  are  represented  on  composite,  better  films 
committees. 

The  _  National  Society  of  New  England  Women 
at  their  national  convention  last  May  devoted  an 
evening  to  the  subject  of  the  Better  Films  Move- 
ment as  presented  to  them  by  Dr.  Chester  C. 
Marshall  rf  the  National  Committee  for  Better 
Films.  < Shortly  after  this,  it  may  be  here  ob- 
cerved.  Dr.  Marshall,  who  is  pastor  of  the  First 
Me'hodist  Church  in  Bridgeport.  Conn.,  attracted 
wide  attention  by  a  sermon  stressing  the  obligation 
whi^h  rests  upon  the  citizens  of  every  community 
to  form  a  better  films  committee,  basing  this  ser- 
mon upon  the  results  of  a  questionnaire  which  he 
hnd  circulated  among  prominent  educators,  business 
men.  ministers,  producers,  etc.) 

The  National  Congress  of  Mothers  and  Parent- 
Teachers  has  had  a  better  films  committee  for  sev- 
eral years,  but  its  policy  has  been  deflected  from 


that  of  recommendation  alone  to  that  of  recommen- 
dation of  some  films  plus  condemnation  of  others 
As  the  latter  is  contrary  to  the  spirit  of  the 
lietter  films  Movement,  which  recognizes  that 
public  condemnation  only  serves  to  increase  patron- 
age of  the  films  condemned  while  injuring  the 
reputation  of  some  films  which  possibly  in  the  eyes 
of  some  thinking  people  might  not  deserve  such 
condemnation,  the  real  contribution  of  this  organ- 
ization to  the  Better  Films  Movement,  despite  its 
activity  in  that  connection,  may  be  thought  open 
to  debate.  However,  a  recent  change  in  adminis- 
tration may  augur  a  change  of  policy,  and  many 
ocal  parent-teacher  groups,  proceeding  independent- 
ly of  the  national,  have  done  most  effective  work, 
as  those  in  the  South  which  are  represented  on 
better  films  committees,  that  in  Rutherford  N  J 
and  the  Mother's  Club  in  Albany. 

The  New  York  State  Federation  of  Home  bu- 
reaus, a  strong  rural  organization,  considered  the 
subject  of  the  Better  Films  Movement  at  their 
conventicin  in  Syracuse  in  November,  voted  for 
cooperation  with  the  National  Committee  and  forth- 
with appointed  a  committee  to  work  out  plans. 
"The  American  Agriculturist"  has  established  a 
better  films  department  conducted  by  the  National 
Committee,  and  the  National  Grange  Association 
/ecently  voted  to  engage  in  the  movement  for 
ietter  films.  It  thus  appears  that  progress  is 
-ihout  to  be  made  in  the  rural  sections.  This 
should  prove  a  fertile  field,  as  the  conditions  of 
carrying  out  the  methods  of  better  films  work  are 
much  simpler  where  there  are  but  one  or  two  ex- 
hibitors to  deal  with,  than  in  the  cities. 

Newspaper  Attitude 

The  attitude  of  newspapers  during  the  past  year 
towards  motion  pictures  has  shown  an  interesting 
development.  There  has  been  some  editorial  criti- 
cism of  titles  and  sensational  or  suggestive  adver- 
tising, but  very  little  of  the  films  themselves  other 
than  to  remark  occasionally  on  some  of  their  trivial- 
ities; while  motion  pictures  have  scarcely  ever  been 
mentioned  without  according  them  full  measure  of 
credit  for  their  manifold  merits.  Wholly  hostile 
criticism  and  editorial  advocacy  of  censorship  have 
almost  entirely  disappeared.  On  the  other  hand, 
a  number  of  papers  have  come  out  strongly  for  the 
organized  Better  Films  Movement  and  the  work 
of  local  committees,  for  children's  matinees,  for 
parental  responsibility  in  governing  the  child's 
attendance  at  motion  pictures  and  above  all  for 
a  recognition  by  the  individual  patron  of  the  pro- 
duction effect  of  his  own  attendance  at  motion  pic- 
tures and  his  responsibility  therefor.  The  idea  that 
every  admission  ticket  is  a  ballot  for  the  type  of 
picture  being  shown  is  fast  gaining  general  ac- 
ceptance. 

Slogans 

Slogans  are  beinc  used  by  a  number  of  better 
films  committees.  That  of  the  National  Committee 
for  Better  Films — "Selection — not  censorship — the 
solution"— Still  remains  the  most  popular.  Stockton 
has  "Booste  the  best,  ignore  the  rest."  This.  Bir- 
mingham has  modified  to  "Boost  the  best,  improve 
the  rest,"  while  Atlanta  has  recently  adopted  "Co- 
operate and  educate." 

Book  Week 

Children's  Book  Week.  November  9-16.  was  a^ain 
observed  this  year  with  motion  pictures.  The 
National  Committee  for  Better  Films  prepared  its 
largest  list  so  far  in  connection  with  this  week, 
covering  282'  selected  pictures  based  on  apnroved 
literature,  both  new  and  old.  which  are  nationally 
available  in  the  exchanges.  This  list  of  Selected 
Book  Films  is  not  confined  to  tho^e  for  children; 
circulated  bv  the  National  Committee,  and  to  thou- 
sands of  libraries  and  bookstores  through  the  co- 
operation of  the  National  Association  of  Book 
Publishers,  it  is  a  factor  in  arousing  communities 
which  use  it  once,  to  year-round  activity  in  support 
not  only  of  the  good  book-films,  but  of  all  good 
films.  A  number  of  libraries  here  adopted  coopera- 
tion with  exhibitors  as  part  of  their  regular  activ- 
ity. Details  of  methods  used  are  obtainable  from 
the   National  Committee. 

Better  Films  Conference 

On  February  lf.th  last  the  National  Board  of 
Review  held  its  Annual  Luncheon  for  which  event 
a  number  of  members  of  the  National  Committee 
for  Better  Films  came  on  from  distant  cities.  The 
opportunity  thus  projected  itself  for  holding  at  that 


602 


time  a  conference  for  those  out-of-town  delegates. 
As  this  goes  to  press,  therefore,  arrangements  are 
being  made  for  a  limited  Better  Films  Conference 
to  be  held  at  the  Waldorf-Astoria,  N.  Y.,  ajnuary 
1 5th- 1 7th,  1925,  preceding  the  Annual  Luncheon 
of  the  National  Board  on  the  latter  date.  At  the 
business  sessions,  January  16th,  plans  will  be  dis- 
cussed for  unifying  the  methods  of  better  films 
committees  and  for  the  establishment  of  a  uniform 
program  of  activity  to  be  carried  on  under  the 
National  Committee's  enlarged  plan  for  both  the 
study  of  the  motion  picture  and  cooperation  with 
exhibitors  on  behalf  of  the  better  films. 

Publications 

Important  publications  in  the  Better  Films  Move- 
ment are  the  Better  Films  Bulletin,  published  by 
the  Atlanta  committee,  covering  activities  in  the 
Southeast,  and  the  publications  of  the  National 
Committee  for  Better  Films.  These  are:  Photo- 
play Guide  to  the  Better  Films,  weekly  and  month- 
ly, and  annually  in  the  form  ot  a  catalog  called 
"Selected  Pictures" ,  and  "Film  Progress" ,  monthly. 

This  latter  contains  a  number  of  departments 
including  description  and  criticism  of  the  "better 
films"  of  feature  length,  motion  picture  bibliog- 
raphy, lists  and  information  for  churches  using 
films,  local  notes  of  better  film  activities,  notes 
on  the  educational  and  non-theatrical  field,  articles, 
lists  for  special  occasions  such  as  Christmas,  pa-

National  Board  of  Review,  is  also  furnished  to 
Associate  and  Cooperating  members  of  the  National 
Committee  and  to  anyone  else  on  subscription. 
In  the  class  with  the  foregoing,  as  giving  informa- 
tion on  a  wide  range  of  better  films,  might  also 
be  mentioned  Robert  E.  Sherwood's  "The  Best 
Moving   Pictures  of  1922-23."

Principles    of  Selection 

Last  but  not  least  among  the  accomplishments 
of  the  year  is  the  formulation  by  the  National  Com- 
mittee for  Better  Films  of  "Principles  of  Selec 
tion  for  the  Photoplay  Guide  to  the  Better  Films" 
which  is  issued  by  the  National  Committee.  These 
Principles,  which  have  been  evolved,  out  of  the 
experience  of  the  review  committees  of  the  Na- 
tional Board  of  Review  in  making  their  selections 
for  the  National  Committee  lists,  constitute  the 
first  and  only  comprehensive  and  authoritative  defin- 
ition of  "what  is  a  better  film".  While  designed 
primarily  as  a  further  guide  to  these  review  com- 
mittees in  their  work  of  selection,  they  are  also  of 
significance  to  the  whole  Better  Films  Movement. 
Heretofore  there  has  been  in  certain  cases  a  marked 
disparity  of  judgment  among  the  various  local 
better  films  committees  as  to  what  specifically  are 
the  better  films.  A  study  of  these  Principles 
should  go  far  to  remove  such  differences  of  opinion 
and  bring  about  a  more  uniform  recognition  of 
the  better  films.  They  are  of  importance  to  the 
motion  picture  industry  as  defining  the  standards 
observed  by  The  National  Board  of  Review  in 
the  selection  of  the  better  films,  upon  which  its 
emphasis  is  now  placed,  just  as  for  so  many  years 
the  Board's  own  standards  of  passage  have  been 
recognized  as  of  importance  to  producers  and  dis- 
tributors. 


The  principles  follow: 

1.  Entertainment 


ilue 


2.  Theme  or  idea 

3.  Plot  and  story 

4.  Acting 

5.  Setting  and  costuming 

6.  Photography 

7.  Subtitles 

8.  Instructional  value 

9.  Moral  effect

SOME  STATISTICS 

(Continued  from  l'acre  449) 
In  1913  thirty-two  million  lineal  feet  of  film 
were  exported.  Tn  1°23  two  hundred  million  feet 
went  into  foreign  trade  and  the  per  cent  of  Ameri- 
can films  used  abroad  is  between  eighty  and 
ninety. 

On  the  other  band,  four  hundred  and  twenty  five 
foreign  pictures  were  sent  here  for  sale  in  1922. 
Of  these  only  six  were  sold  and  exhibited  in  the 
United  States  and  of  these  six  only  two  wore  finan- 
cial successes.

SERIAL  GOOD  WILL 

Serial  pictures  are  the  only  pictures  made  that 
will  enable  exhibitors  to  build  up  goodwill.  I  mean 
that  when  a  theater  runs  a  feature,  unless  his 
patrons  go  crazy  about  it  and  go  to  see  it  two 
or  three  times,  there  is  no  goodwill  built  up — ■ 
one  look  at  it  is  sufficient.  But — when  an  exhibitor 
runs  a  serial,  the  patrons  of  his  theater  must 
come  back  nine  more  times  to  see  the  complete 
picture.  In  other  words,  he  gets  nine  repeat 
orders. 

The  Cocoa-Cola  Company  has  a  capitalization  of 
around  twenty-five  million  dollars;  values  their 
good  will  at  about  twenty-three  million.  This  is 
because  of  the  fact  that  it  is  a  five  cent  article 
and  therefore,  has  a  tremendous  reordering  power. 

The  Crane  Company  that  has  a  capitalization  of 
an  equal  amount  has  a  goodwill  value  of  less  than 
three  million  dollars.  The  answer  is,  when  anyone 
buys  a  Crane  machine  he  is  set  for  a  life 
time. 

The  Pillsbury  trade  mark  is  almost  priceless. 
Many  a  wealthy  man  would  pay  six  or  eight 
million  dollars  just  to  have  the  trade  mark  name — 
Pillsbury.  He  could  start  in  business  on  a  day's 
notice  worth  seven  or  eight  million  dollars,  due  to 
the  goodwill  value  of  the  Pillsbury  name. 

When  an  exhibitor  can  get  a  picture  that  actually 
builds  up  goodwill  and  brings  people  back  week 
after  week,  he  has  something  of  unusual  merit 
in  the  film  market. 

Theaters  are  realizing  more  and  more  the  fact 
that  they  have  got  to  play  to  the  same  people 
week  after  week  if  they  are  going  to  continue  in 
business.  Therefore,  any  picture  in  itself  in  order 
to  bring  people  back  again  to  see  other  programs 
must  be  of  unusual  value  to  the  picture  showman. 

A  prominent  advertising  man  once  said:  "Good- 
will ^  what  you  have  got  left,  after  you  have  sold 
a  man  your  product;  gotten  his  money  and  he  has 
taken  the  goods  and  left  your  store ;  it  is  your 
good  chance  of  his  coming  back  for  more." 

F.  J.  McConnell,  Universal.

Exhibitors  who  do  not  desire  to  pay  music  tax 
should  remember  the  following: 

1st.  Absolute  instructions  should  be  given  to 
those  in  charge  of  the  theater  music  as  to  just 
whose  music  should  be  made  use  of  and  that  if 
there  is  any  doubt  the  music  should  not  be  used 
until  the  facts  are  known. 

2nd.  Cue  sheets  and  scores  offered  for  sale  or 
distributed  should  not  be  used  by  those  who  do 
not  wish  to  pay  the  tax  unless  the  statement  is 
made  and  guaranteed  that  the  music  recommended 
is  not  subject  to  tax.  Where  scores  are  sold  or 
rented  a  guarantee  should  go  with  each  copy  that 
all  liability  is  assumed  by  the  publisher  should 
trouble  arise. 

3rd.  Every  theater  man  not  wishing  to  pay  the 
tax  should  see  that  his  library  of  music  contains 
only  selections  which  are  issued  by  those  compa- 
nies whose  music  is  tax  free  and  are  non-members 
of  the  society. 

4th.  When  those  in  charge  of  the  music  supply 
the  music  for  the  theater  the  theater  owner  should 


instruct  and  demand  that  non-taxable  music  only 
should  be  played,  and  when  cues  are  supplied  see 
to  it  that  the  musicians  substitute  non-taxabla 
music  wherever  taxable  music  is  specified.  The 
theater  owner  is  liable  if  this  is  not  done. 

Trouble  and  lawsuits  may  result  from  the  use 
of  music  inadvertently  used  which  is  taxable,  three- 
fore  too  much  care  cannot  be  used.  Spotters  may 
be  in  the  audience  or  other  methods  used  for  lo- 
cating houses  using  taxable  music. 

Some  houses  believe  that  the  tax  is  so  small 
that  it  is  better  to  pay  it  than  fight  and  go  to  the 
trouble  of  inspecting  all  music  This  is  an  open 
question  to  be  settled  by  each  theater  owner  indi- 
vidually or  by  the  united  action  of  the  theater 
owners'  organization.  If  the  tax  is  to  be  fought 
it  must  be  done  by  united  action  of  theater  in- 
terests. 

A  warning  should  be  given  to  every  maker  of 
cue-sheets  and  every  maker  of  scores  that  he  owes 
it  to  the  theater  to  label  every  cue — stating  wheth- 
er or  not  it  contains  taxable  music  and  if  so  each 
of  the  selections  should  be  so  labeled. 


National  Catholic  Welfare  Conference 


1312  Masaschusetts  Ave.,  N.  W.,  Washing- 
ton, D.  C. 

Charles  A.  McMahon,  Director. 

The  above-named  bureau  is  one  of  the  most 
active  departments  of  the  National  Catholic  Wel- 
fare Conference,  an  organization  operated  in 
Washington,  D.  C,  under  the  supervision  of  arch- 
bishops and  bishops  representing  the  Catholic 
Hierarchy  of  the  United  States,  organized  prin- 
cipally for  the  purpose  of  co-ordinating  the  Catho- 
lic lay  activity   in  matter  of  social  welfare. 

The  N.  C.  W.  C.  Motion  Picture  Bureau  main- 
tains a  regular  department  in  the  N.  C.  W.  C. 
Bulletin,  official  organ  of  the  Welfare  Confer- 
ence, in  which  worth  while  pictures  are  reviewed 
for  the  information  of  several  thousand  rational, 
state,  dioceson  and  local  organizations  affiliated 
with  the  National  Council  of  Catholic  Women 
and    the    National    Council    of    Catholic  Men. 

The  bureau,  through  its  director,  furnishes  a 
regular  motion  picture  critique  to  the  N.  C.  W.  C. 
News  Service,  one  of  the  departments  of  the 
Welfare  Conference,  which  serves  the  entire 
Catholic  press  of  the  United  States  (approxi- 
mately 100  daily  and  weekly  newspapers),  this  in 
an  effort  to  divert  Catholic  patronage  toward  the 
better  class  of  motion  picture  offerings.  The 
N.  C.  W.  C.  Bureau  does  not  black  list  any 
motion  picture. 

The  director  of  the  bureau,  Mr.  McMahon,  is 
a  member  of  the  executive  committee  of  th<. 
Committee  on  Public  Relations  cooperating  with 
the  Motion  Picture  Indus tiy,  a  member  of  the 
executive  board  of  the   Motion    Picture  Chamber 


of  Commerce  of  America,  Non-Theatrical,  and  a 
member  of  the  national  committee  of  the  Society 
for  Visual  Education. 

The  plan  and  policy  of  the  N.  C.  W.  C.  Motion 
Picture  Bureau  are  as  follows: 

1.  To  develop  among  the  Catholic  people  of 
the  United  States  a  proper  appreciation  of 
the  motion  picture  as  an  instrument  of  enter- 
tainment, recreation  and  education. 

2.  To  work  constructively  with  the  members  of 
the  National  Association  of  Motion  Picture 
Producers  and  other  film  manufacturers  for 
the   further    advancement   of    the    screen,  the 

elevation  of  the  standards  of  motion  picture 
production,  and  the  development  of  the  high- 
est usefulness  of  the  motion  picture  industry. 

3.  To  direct  the  flow  of  Catholic  patronage 
toward    worth-while   motion  pictures. 

4.  To  invoke  public  opinion,  especially  Catholic 
opinion,  as  the  most  effective  kind  of  censor- 
ship in  remedying  the  evils  in  motion  picture 
production  and  exhibition. 

5.  To  work  for  clean,  truthful  and  inoffensive 
advertising  and  exploitation  of  motion  pic- 
tures. 

6.  To  encourage  the  presentation  of  motion  pic- 
tures which  appeal  to  the  whole  family  and  the 

exhibition  at  special  matinees  of  films  suit- 
able for  juvenile  patronage  only. 

7.  To  promote  the  further  use  of  motion  pictures 
in  Catholic  parishes,  schools,  colleges  and 
community  circles  as  a  force  for  education 
and  for  good  citizenship.

Exhibitor  Organizations 


DEVELOPMENT  OF  M.  P.  T.  O. 
of  A. 

BY    M    J.   O'TOOLE,  PRESIDENT 

Many  events  of  impor- 
tance to  the  -Motion  Pic- 
ture Industry  during  the 
year  1924  and  the  affairs 
of  the  Motion  Picture 
Theater  Owners  of 
America  in  that  time 
have  undergone  such 
evolutionary  changes  as 
tended  to  fit  this  great 
National  Organization  to 
more  perfectly  perform 
the  duties  encumbent  up- 
on it  in  protecting  and 
advancing  the  interests  and  business  welfare  of 
Theater  Owners  everywhere. 

The  Exhibitor  division  of  our  Industry  is  the 
only  point  of  contact  with  the  public.  All  values 
within  our  business  are  predicated  on  the  ability 
of  the  Theater  Owner  to  make  the  house  programs 
sufficiently  attractive  to  please  the  public  and  se- 
cure the  necessary  measure  of  popular  cooperation 
No  other  source  of  income  is  available  save 
that  based  on  public  good  will  and  the  only  place 
this  can  be  manifested  is  through  the  box  of- 
fice in  the  theater. 

Theater  owners  everywhere  are  becoming  more 
appreciative  of  this  fact  and  the  leading  place 
it  gives  them.  Good  business  practices  suggest 
a  more  widespread  recognition  of  this  situation 
on  the  part  of  all  concerned,  as  it  is  only  through 
mutual  understandings  that  the  maximum  in  re- 
sults can  be  reached  in  any  busniess. 

The  place  and  the  importance  of  the  Producer 
and  Distributor  have  always  been  understood  by 
the  Exhibitor.  At  times  the  Theater  Owner  has 
unwittingly  surrendered  too  much  of  his  ground 
to  these  other  elements  and  thus  weakened  his 
position  with  the  public  and  brought  on  the  con- 
sequent depreciation  in  box  office  results. 

But  through  the  educational  and  informative  pro 
cesses  set  in  action  by  the  Motion  Picture  Theater 
Owners  of  America,  the  Theater  Owner  is  becom- 
ing more  and  more  perceptive  of  his  real  position. 
He  senses  now  more  keenly  than  ever  before  the 
actual  importance  of  this  direct  contact  with  the 
public.  He  realizes  the  need  for  mutualizing  this 
situation  so  as  to  make  this  daily  contact  with 
millions  of  people  in  all  parts  of  the  United  States 
so  reciprocal  in  advantages  as  to  firmly  cement 
the  relationship.  He  feels  that  this  popular  ap- 
proval of  his  efforts  imposes  upon  him  certain 
obligations  to  Nation,  State,  City  and  Town  and 
he  is  most  desirous  of  discharging  them  in  as  per- 
fect a  way  as  possible  in  making  his  theater  a  real 
community  institution. 

PUBLIC  GREATEST  ASSET 

The  public  constitutes  the  greatest  force  in  the 
Motion  Picture  Industry  as  in  all  other  lines  of 
business  and  when  the  Theater  Owner  assimilates 
this  element  and  knows  how  to  use  the  mutual 
power  People  and  Screen  present  he  has  no  busi- 
ness problem  then  save  that  of  continuing  to 
please  the  public.  When  this  coordination  of  ele- 
ments becomes  manifest,  every  Producer  and  Dis- 
tributor in  the  Nation  will  seek  at  once  to  fit 
his  business  into  the  situation  and  all  unfair 
and  unethical  practices  will  cease. 

It  is  only  because  the  Theater  Owner  had  not 
truly  sensed  his  real  position  in  the  Industry  and 
as  a  consequence  allowed  himself  to  be  put  in  the 
inferior  division,  that  any  unethical  business  prac- 
tice was  ever  permitted  to  prevail.  Of  course, 
this  situation  must  be  changed  through  evolution- 
ary processes  and  the  Motion  Picture  Theater 
Owners  of  America  is  handling  it  that  way.  We 
seek  cooperation.  We  desire  only  constructive 
action.  But  we  are  not  mistaking  absorption  or 
usurpation  for  cooperation  and  when  the  lion  and 
the  lamb  in   our   Industry   lie  down   together  in 


mat  business  peace  we  seek  most  heartjlj  to  at- 
tain, we  must  insist  that  the  lamb  (.No  matte 
which  side  assumes  that  role)  shall  have  its  true 
and  active  place  and  not  merely  he  me  t  Within 

Ul  Since'  assuming  the  office  of  President  of  the 
Motion  Picture  Theater  Owners  ot  America  1 
have  endeavored  to  so  firmly  establish  these  funda 
mentals  in  the  minds  of  the  Theater  Owners  that 
there  could  be  no  possible  misunderstanding  o 
the  situation.  No  amoun  of  detail  or  divisional 
work  will  bring  permanent  results  unless  1  heater 
Owners  actually  know  their  own  position,  under- 
sland  the  power  this  daily  contact  with  the  public 
gives  them  and  then  appreciate  and  understand  the 
better  and  more  effective  way  to  use  that  power  to 
advance  their  business.  We  are  making  hundreds 
of  adjustments  at  the  National  Office  where  I  hea- 
ter Owners  have  difficulties  of  various  kinds  with 
Exchanges,  Censorship  bodies  and  others.    All  ot 

this  is  intensely  constructive.  

RECORD  OF  APPROVED  SERVICE 

During  the  year  1924,  the  tax  relief  by  Con- 
gress superseded  in  point  of  money  involved  any 
previous  boon  to  Theater  Owners.  Millions  ot 
dollars  were  saved  the  Industry  by  the  Motion 
Picture  Theater  Owners  of  America  in  this  rela 
tion.  The  cooperation  of  others  in  the  Industry 
aided  in  these  accomplishments  and  our  National 
Organization  was  the  coordinating  element  in- 
volved. The  Motion  Picture  Theater  Owners  of 
America  can  point  to  many  great  achievements. 
Hut  if  this  Organization  did  nothing  else  save 
that  which  featured  its  work  in  the  last  session 
of  Congress,  it  deserves  the  lasting  gratitude  and 
support  of  all  Theater  Owners. 

The  efforts  of  our  National  Organization  in  the 
Music  Tax  tight  will  bear  fruit  in  the  present 
Congress.  Here  are  other  elements  to  combat  in 
the  shape  of  threatened  Sunday  closing  and  Na- 
tional Censorship.  This  will  require  strenuous 
moves.  But  the  Theater  Owners  of  the  Nation 
may  rest  assured  these  moves  will  be  made. 

Membership  in  the  Motion  Picture  Theater 
Ownes  of  America  is  now  direct  and  Exhibitors 
from  ail  over  the  Nation  have  responded  to  the  call 
making  our  forces  more  militant  and  solidly 
placed.  Wonderful  work  is  being  done  by  State 
and  Regional  bodies.  These  handle  the  Exhibitor 
needs  in  a  divisional  way  and  the  Nation-wide 
service  is  rendered  by  the  National  Body. 

Proved  service  records  presented  by  the  Motion 
Picture  Theater  Owners  of  America  to  the  Presi- 
dent of  the  United  States,  the  Secretary  of  the 
Treasury  and  to  Congress  brought  about  tax  re- 
lief and  will  give  the  Exhibitors  additional  favor 
at  Washington. 

We  get  out  of  life  in  proportion  to  what  we 
put  into  it.  Theater  Owners  get  from  Government 
and  Public  in  pronortion  to  the  service  they  give 
Government  and  Public.  That  is  a  fundamental 
fact.

AIDING  THE  GOVERNMENT 

The  .Motion  Picture  Theater  Owners  of  America 
now  has  under  way  definite  lines  of  service  for  the 
National  Government.  Our  scriens  have  Hashed 
the  messages  of  the  War  Department  on  the  Citi- 
zens Military  ("amp  and  other  features  anil  won  tin 
direct  commendation  of  Secretary  Weeks,  Major 
Brewrster,  General  Barnes  and  others. 

The  efforts  of  our  National  Organization  on  be 
half  of  the  United  Stales  Bureau  of  Education  in 
helping  to  advance  school  service  through  National 
Education  Week  in  November  won  unstinted  praise 
from  the  Secretary  of  the  lnte:ior  and  United 
States  Commissioner  of  Education,  Dr.  John  J. 
Tigert. 

Again  the  work  of  the  Motion  Picture  Theater 
Owners  of  America  for  the  Post  Office  Depart 
ment,  has  so  accelerated  and  advanced  our  Postal 
Service  that  the  holiday  mail  was  handled  with 
celerity  and  dispatch  and  this  Screen  aid,  now 
two  years  in  duration,  has  brought  to  our  Organiza 
tion  and  the  Theater  Owners  the  highest  com- 
mendation from  Postmaster  General  New  and 
others. 

This  is  the  big  substantial  work,  the  kind  that 
wins  honestly,  fairly  and  squarely  the  fullest  meas- 
ure of  official  and  public  good  will  for  the  Theater 
Owner,  makes  the  Theater  a  real  community  in- 
stitution, the  Exhibitor  an  acknowledged  leader 
and  by  thus  leading  him  ever  upward  and  on 
ward  gives  him  that  real  place  in  our  Industry 
where  his  business  is  entirely  secure  and  absolute- 
ly proof  against  any  form  of  unfair  opposition 
inside  or  outside  the  Motion   Picture  fold. 

This  is  the  real  work  of  the  Motion  Picture  The- 
ater Owners  of  America,  carried  forward  daily 
with  increasThg  energy  at  our  National  Office  and 
which  is  now  meeting  with  such  a  complete  meas- 
ure of  appreciation  on  the  part  of  Theater  Own- 
ers all  over  the  Nation.

CO-OPERATE    IN    SAVING  PRINTS 

The  Des  Moines  Film  Exchange  Board  of  Trade 
and  the  Des  Moines  Operators  Local  Union  No. 
286  planned  to  cut  down  the  damage  done  to 
hi  ms.  With  each  box  of  film,  from  one  reel  on 
up,  there  is  packed  a  pink  slip  as  follows: 

"IMPORTANT! 

"Date  

"This  film  thoroughly  inspected  and  is  now  in  good 
physical  condition. 

"Inspected  by  

"Any  complaints  as  to  physical  condition  must  be 
made  immediately  upon  receipt,  as  theatre  owner 
will  be  held  fully  responsible  for  any  and  all 
damage  after  exhibition  date,  and  collection  will 
be  made  for  the  full  amount  of  any  damage  to 
this  print. 

"OPERATORS— ATTENTION ! 
"This  film  is  now  free  from  punch  marks  or  any 
other  mutilations  used  by  operators  to  denote  reel 
ending.  Any  markings  of  any  kind  found  in  this 
film  after  its  return  to  the  Exchange  from  your 
theatre,  the  operator  and  the  theatre  will  be  held 
fully  responsible  and  subject  to  the  fine  and  penal- 
tic,  impored  by  the  Onerators'  Local  and  Film 
Exchange  Board  of  Trade. 

The  white  leader  placed  at  the  end  of  each  reel 
is  to  be  used  as  your  reel  ending  warning.  Do 
not  remove  same  under  any  circumstances 

"DES  MOINES  FILM  EXCHANGE  BOARD 
OF  TRADE 
"ENDORSE  Tty  D^S  MOTNES  OPERATORS' 
LOCAL  UNION  NO.  286" 

The  operator  can  thereby  rea'ize  that  he  can 
rvoid  a  world  of  grief  by  handling  the  film  care- 
fully. This  little  notice  also  acts  the  other  way. 
No  film  exchange  can  send  out  poor  film  when 
accompanied  by  such  a  ,ctatement. 

This  plan  put  into  effect  by  A.  W.  Kahn  of 
the  Educational  Exchange  of  Des  Moines,  has  been 
in  operation  in  Los  Angeles  for  some  time. 


M.  J.   O'TOOLE'S  BROCHURE 

Writing  when  he  was  Chairman  of  the  Public 
Service  Department  of  the  M.  P.  T.  O.  A.,  M.  J. 
O'Toole.  pre-ent  president  of  the  exhibitor  orirani 
z.->tion,  pub'i^hed  a  pamphlet  of  4°  pages  on  How 
to  Build  Up  and  Protect  fhe  Business  of  the 
Motion  Picture  Theater.  The  es-ence  of  the  work 
embodies  the  rela*;ons  of  the  motion  picture  theater 
service  to  the  nation,  state,  city,  and  general  com- 
munity advantage. 

Starting  with  a  discourse  on  the  similarity  be- 
tween the  screen  and  the  press  the  author  goes  on 
to  emphasize  the  importance  of  the  independent 
theater  as  the  bulwark  of  the  industry.  Chanters 
on  organization  for  theater  owners,  the  use  of  the 
sc-een  as  an  economic  stabilizer,  and  its  significant 
influence  on  the  moulding  of  the  character  of  the 
youth  of  the  land  occupy  much  of  the  author's 
attention,  who  attacks  the  problems  from  the  clear, 
practical   viewpoint  of  the  operating  exhibitor. 


612 


In  a  chapter,  headed,  "Reform  Period  of  Film 
Industry  Nearing  Close"  O'Toole  gives  it  as  his 
opinion  that  theater  owners  must  rid  themselves  of 
the  legislative  and  other  impediments  which  have 
heen  the  outgrowth  of  years  of  misapprehension 
and  groundless  suspicion  on  the  parts  of  "sad-eyed" 
personages  who  for  years  have  tried  to  belittle  and 
destroy  the  industry.  On  this  point  the  writer 
holds,  "the  day  of  the  professional  reformer,  as  far 
as  his  energies  may  be  applied  to  the  motion  picture 
business,  is  over.  Today  honest,  fair,  square  anal- 
ysis supplants  distrust,  suspicion  and  misrepresenta- 
tion. *  *  *  Hut  the  theater  owner  must  be  in  the 
front  rank  of  this  new  and  better  procession.  He 
is  a  leader,  the  people  want  him  to  lead.  He 
must  sense  the  complete  responsibilities  of  his 
new  position  and  tilting  his  flag  to  the  front,  go 
majestically  and  constructively  forward." 

O'Tuole  concludes  his  brochure  with  chapters 
on  censorship  and  the  co-operation  of  the  screen 
in  upholding  moral  forces.  The  author  urges  that 
for  business  reasons,  if  for  no  other,  the  theater 
owner  must  exalt  right  and  supress  wrong. 

As  a  whole  this  booklet  presents  the  case  of 
building  up  and  protecting  the  motion  picture  the 
ater  in  a  comprehensive,  concise  style,  touching 
adequately  on  the  economic,  ethical  and  moral 
ramifications  therein  contained.

TRAILERS 

The  Trailer  today  plays  a  most  important  part 
in  the  exhibitor's  campaign  to  exploit  his  pictures 
successfully.  Trailers  have  proven  that  they  carry 
a  strong  appeal  and  interest  and  are  considered  in- 
valuable in  helping  the  exhibitor  sell  his  audience 
the  proper  entertainment  value  of  his  coming  at- 
tractions. 

Trailers  today  are  designed  with  unusual  care  and 
attention.  It  is  an  art  in  itself  and  requires  spe- 
cialization oi  the  highest  order  to  build  a  trailer 
that  will  belli  the  box  office. 

The  exhibitor  who  still  resorts  to  slides  is  over- 
looking the  unusual  advertising  value  of  his  own 
screen.  The  slide  cannot  give  his  audience  any 
conception  of  the  particular  entertainment  value  of 
that  picture,  whereas  well  chosen  scenes  injected 
with  selling  copy  of  that  production  will  arouse  the 
interest  of  his  audience  and  will  result  in  attracting 
a  considerable  portion  of  his  audience.

Legal  Decisions  of  Importance 


NATHAN  BURKAN 

Sonic  very  interesting  decisions  have  come 
down  this  year  affecting  motion  pictures  and  copy- 
right There  has  also  been  an  attempt  to  legis- 
late with  respect  to  the  Copyright  Act. 

A  few  of  the  decisions  that  will  interest  the 
motion  picture  industry  are  the  following: 

The  "Ten  Commandments"  Case 

The  Famous  Players- 1. asky  Corporation  having 
expended  over  a  million  dollars  upon  its  produc- 
tion of  "The  Ten  Commandments"  was  faced  with 
a  serious  problem  early  in  the  year  when  the 
Weiss  Brothers,  operating  the  Artclass  Pictures 
Corporation,  released  their  picture  under  the  title. 
"After  Six  Days,  featuring  Moses  and  The  Ten 
Comandments,"  the  phrase  "Moses  and  The  Ten 
Commandments."  being  in  particularly  large  and 
conspicuous  type. 

Tt  seems  that  the  Weiss  Brothers  had  pur- 
chased a  52  reel  Italian  film  representing  the 
stories  of  the  Bible,  and  after  the  great  ponu 
larity  of  "The  Ten  Commandments."  they  had 
cut  their  picture,  which  had  been  intended  for 
non-theatrical  use  only,  to  a  seven  reel  length, 
and  distributed  the  same  for  theatrical  purposes 
under  that  title.  The  title  had  originally  been 
"The.  Holy  Bible,"  and  had  been  changed  a  num- 
ber of  times,  until  it  approximated  very  closely 
the  title  of  the  Famous  Players'  picture. 

Suit  was  brought  to  restrain  the  use  of  this 
title  and  the  exhibition  of  the  film  under  the 
title  and  the  matter  was  referred  to  Robert  L. 
Bruce,  Esq.,  Refe-ee,  who  held  protracted  hearings 
and  took  a  great  quantity  of  testimony.  He  finally 
decided  that  the  Famous  Players  was  entitled  to 
an  injunction  as  well  as  damages,  and  he  en- 
joined the  Weiss  Brothers  from  exhibiting  their 
film  under  the  infringing  title. 

The  decision  is  of  importance,  not  only  because 
of  the  large  investment  invo'ved.  but  because  the 
Judge  laid  down  the  rule  unequivocally,  fliat  the 
Famous  Players,  in  order  to  win.  did  not  have 
to  show  that  they  had  an  exclusive  rightl  to  ap- 
propriate the  words,  "The  Ten  Commandments" 
for  their  title  Even  admitting  that  that  was  not  a 
title  that  could  be  monopolized,  nevertheless.  Judge 
Luce  held  that  the  defendants  could  not  use  the 
title,  because  their  title  was  calculated  to  deceive 
the  public.  In  other  words,  the  plamtiff  did  not 
have  to  have  a  trade-mark  or  trade-name;  it  was 
enough  if  unfair  competition  was  shown. 

While  that  rule  is  an  old  rule,  there  has  been 
much  confusion  in  the  law  with  respect  to  its 
application,  and  Judge  Luce  did  a  great  deal  in 
his  decision  to  clarify  the  rule. 

The  result  of  this  decision  should  be  bene- 
ficial to  the  industry,  as  it  make  it  so  much  easier 
to  reach  an  infringer. 

The  Henry  King  Case 

In  August,  the  Inspiration  Pictures,  Inc.  com- 
menced an  action  against  the  well-know  motion 
picture  director,  Henrv  King,  claiming  that  he  was 
under  contract  with  the  corporation  to  make  eight 
additional  pictures,  and  that  in  violation  of  his 
contract,  he  had  declined  to  render  further  ser- 
vices. An  injunction  was  prayed  for,  restraining 
him  from  rendering  his  services  to  any  other 
person  or  .firm,  and  a  preliminary  restraining  order 
was  granted 

Samuel  Untermyer,  Esq.,  represented  the  In- 
sniration  Pictures,  Inc.,  and  we  represented  Mr. 
King.  .  . 

Before  the  motion  for  temporary  injunction 
came  on,  we  obtained  an  order  to  take  the  depo- 
sitions of  various  witnesses  for  use  on  the  motion, 
and  a  most  unusual  situation  was  disclosed. 

It  appears  that  the  Inspiration  Pictures.  Inc. 
made  a  contract  with  Charles  H.  Duell  and  Walter 
Camp,  Jr..  holding  the  majority  of  its  stock,  en 
July  3.  1924.  under  which  it  was  agreed  that  the 
'corporation  would  be  liquidated  ami  dissolved  no 
later  than  October  1.  1924,  and  that  certain  of  its 
assets  would  be  turned  over  to  Mr.  Duell  and 
other  assets  would  lie  turned  over  to  Mr.  Camp 


1 1  was  also  agreed  that  Mr.  Duell  would  form 
a  new  corporation  entitled  "Charles  H.  Duell, 
Inc."  which  would  produce  pictures,  and  that 
another  corporation  to  be  known  as  "Inpiration 
Pictures,  Inc."  (the  identical  name  of  the  old  com- 
pany) would  be  founed  which  would  continue  to 
operate  with  the  assets  taken  over  by  Mr.  Camp. 

Mr.  King  raised  the  point  that  inasmuch  as  the 
law  of  New  York  provides  that  the  formation 
of  a  new  corporation  to  take  over  the  assets  of 
an  old  corporation  and  to  continue  under  its  name 
automatically  dissolves  the  old  company,  there  was, 
therefore,  no  corporation  any  longer  in  existence 
to  hold  Mr.  King  to  any  alleged  contract.  A 
contract  for  services  being  pecularialy  a  personal 
contract.  King  could  not  be  "farmed  out''  from 
one  corporation  to  another,  without  the  consent  of 
the  employee. 

The  motion  for  temporary  injunction  came  on 
to  be  heard,  and  aside  from  King's  defense  on  the 
merits — he  claiming  that  he  was  under  no  contract 
with  Inspiration  Pictures,  Inc. — the  point  was 
made  that  in  any  event,  the  old  company  had  been 
dissolved  and  had  gone  out  of  existence.  The 
Judge  seemed  to  take  the  point  under  advisement, 
ior  he  denied  the  motion  for  temporary  injunc- 
tion and  vacated  the  preliminary  restraining  order, 
on  the  ground  that  the  right  of  the  plaintiff  to 
maintain  the  suit  was  too  doubtful. 

The  importance  of  this  decision  is  that  the 
courts  recognize  that  a  contract  of  employment 
is  a  personal  cont-act ;  that  when  a  corporation 
contracts  for  a  man's  services,  it  cannot  be  satis- 
fied with  a  substitute,  and  the  employee  does 
not  have  to  be  satisfied  with  a  substitute  and 
accept  some  other  corporation :  that  each  has 
the  right  to  look  to,  and  expect  that  the  other 
contracting  party  will  remain  in  existence  to 
carry  out  the  contract,  and  when  anythine  hap- 
pens that  deprives  either  of  the  parties  of  that 
benefit,  then  the  contract  terminates.  While  the 
case  has  not  been  tned  on  the  merits,  there  is 
no  doubt  that  the  final  decision  will  follow  this 
rule. 

The  Jose  Ruben  Case 

Jose  Ruben  was  employed  by  the  International 
Film  Service  Co..  Inc.  for  its  picture,  "When 
Knighthood  Was  in  Flower,"  under  a  written 
contract  of  employment. 

The  studio  had  been  prepared,  the  actors  were  on 
the  scene  at  9:30  in  the  morning  in  costume  ready- 
to  work,  and  the  director  was  on  hand  ready  to 
shoot  scenes,  but  Mr.  Ruben  did"  not  make  his  an- 
pea-ance.  He  appeared  about  twelve  o'clock, 
claiming  that  he  had  sustained  an  injury  to  his 
eye  and  was  compelled  to  obtain  the  services  of 
a  physician  that  morning.  He  was  directed  to 
anpear  in  a  scene  that  da> ,  but  at  the  end  of 
the  day,  he  was  discharged. 

The  employer,  claiming  that  it  had  the  right  to 
discharge  Ruben,  because  it  had  lost  a  large 
sum  of  money  by  reason  of  the  delay  caused  by 
his  absence  that  morning. 

.Mr.  Ruben  thereupon  brought  an  action  for 
breach  of  contract,  claiming  his  salary  for  the 
balance  of  the  term.  Judge  Walsh  of  the  City 
Court  decided  that  Ruben  was  entitled  to  recover 
and  he  held  that  whatever  right  the  International 
had  to  discharge  had  been  waived  by  keeping 
Ruben  for  the  balance  of  the  day.  The  inter- 
national made  the  point  that  it  was  its  duty  to 
keep  him  for  the  balance  of  the  day  in  order  to 
minimize  its  loss  as  much  as  possible,  but  that 
contention  was  brushed  aside. 

The  interesting  point  involved  in  this  case  is 
what  absence  from  duty  is  sufficient  to  constitute 
a  breach  of  the  contract  and  give  the  other  party 
the  right  to  rescind.  The  point  has  not  been 
squarely  passed  upon  in  this  case,  but  the  law- 
seems  to  be  that  the  duration  of  the  absence  does 
not  have  to  be  fixed  and  that  each  case  depends 
upon  its  own  circumstances  and  that  if  from 
the   peculiar  nature  of  the  business,   the  absence 

sufficient  to  cause  great  hardship  and  loss,  then 
the  rb'ht  to  discharge  accrues  to  the  injured  party. 


614 


The  Ruben  case  has  not  perhaps  satisfactorily 
expounded  this  legal  principle,  but  the  case  is  now 
on  appeal,  and  it  is  possible  that  the  Appellate 
Term  may  render  a  decision  that  will  clarity 
the  law  on  this  subject  with  respect  to  motion 
picture  productions,  for  we  all  know  that  the 
loss  of  an  hour  or  two  in  the  taking  of  a  stu- 
pendous feature  picture  may  amount  to  many 
thousands  of  dollars,  and  the  absence  of  an  art- 
ist from  the  cast  for  that  short  period  would  be 
equivalent  to  the  absence  from  work  for  a  much 
longer  period  in  any  other  line  of  occupation. 
There  should  be  something  clear  on  this  situation 
and  it  may  be  that  the  Ruben  case  will  furnish 
the  vehicle,  Tt  should  be  watched  with  interest 
in  the  appeal  courts. 

The  So-called  Music  Tax  on  Theaters 

The  fight  waged  by  the  American  Society  of 
Composers.  Authors  and  Publishers  to  compel  mo- 
tion picture  theaters,  as  well  as  proprietors  of 
other  forms  of  entertainment,  to  refrain  from  pub 
licly  performing  for  profit  copyrighted  music 
without  licenses,  has  been  quite  successful,  and  a 
number  of  decisions  in  various  parts  of  the  country 
have  fortified  the  Society  in  its  contention. 

In  Philadelphia,  about  thirty  cases  bad  been 
brought  against  as  many  proprietors  of  motion 
picture  theaters,  and  these  had  been  sent  to  Spe- 
cial Master  Walter  C.  Douglass,  for  the  purpose 
of  taking  evidence.  The  Special  Master  reported 
in  favor  of  the  plaintiffs  (music  publishers  belong- 
ing to  the  Society),  and  recommended  an  iniunc 
tion,  and  awarded  $250.00  minimum  damage  in  each 
case,  besides  counsel  fee  of  $150.00  and  the 
costs  of  the  hearing.  The  recommendations  of 
the  Special  Master  were  affirmed  by  Judge  Thomp- 
son of  the  Federal  Court  in  Philadelphia,  and  it 
costs  the  exhibitors  in  Philadelphia  roughlv  about 
$20,000.00  to  find  out  that  they  had  no  right  to 
play  copyrighted  music  without  obtaining  licenses 
therefor. 

A  number  of  similar  cases  were  tried  in  Mis- 
souri this  Spring,  and  Judge  Valkenburgh  handed 
down  a  decison  similar  to  Judge  Thompson's 
decision  and  a'so  awarded  damages  and  costs 
against  each  defendant,  the  minimum  damage 
being  $250  00  in  each  case. 

In  an  action  in  Boston,  brought  by  a  member 
of  the  American  Society  for  infringement.  Judge 
Low^ell  found  the  proprietor  of  a  dance  hall  guilty 
of  infringement  and  awarded  $250.00  minimum 
damage. 

In  an  action  in  South  Carolina,  Judge  Coch- 
rane found  the  owner  of  a  motion  picture  theater 
liable  for  infringement  and  awarded  $250.00  and 
$100.00    counsel    fee    and    costs    against  him. 

It  is  manifest  that  the  exclusive  rights  of 
copyright  proprietors  cannot  be  infringed  by 
owners  of  motion  picture  theaters,  and  that  the 
Courts  throughout  the  country  are  uniform  in  their 
decisions. 

.  i 
The    Radio  Situation 

This  year  sees  the  completion  of  the  first  skirm 
ish  between  the  radio  industry  and  copyright  pro- 
prietors. The  radio  industry  having  suddenly  as- 
sumed gigantic  proportions,  has  seen  fit  to  lay- 
do  wn  the  gauntlet  to  authors,  composers  and 
publishers,  and  to  maintain  that  it  has  the  right 
to  transmit  or  broadcast  anything  it  choses  over 
a  microphone,  without  regard  to  copyrieht  pro- 
tection. The  radio  industry  claims  that  the  copy- 
right law  as  worded  does  not  prevent  broadcasting. 
The  struggle  was  a  bitter  one  and  was  waged 
throughout  the  year  in  every  form 

Early  this  Spring,  the  radio  industry  had  a 
bill  iniroduced  into  the  Senate,  known  as  the 
"Dill  Pill."  which  proposed  to  amend  the  Copy- 
right Act  so  as  to  make  broadcasting  exempt  from 
the  operation  of  the  Act.  Hearings  were  held 
before  the  Patent  Committee  on  this  bill  and  the 
representatives  of  the  music  industry,  which  was 
primarily  affected,  appeared  before  the  Committee. 
After  the  Committee  heard  all  of  the  parties  and 
read  all  the  voluminous  briefs  and  documents  sub- 
mitted, it  refused  to  pass  the  bill  out  of  Com- 
mittee at   this  time. 

A  similar  bill  was  introduced  about  the  same 
lime  in  the  House  of  Representatives,  and  hearings 
were   again    held    before   the   Committee    of  that 


House  and  the  bill  never  saw  daylight.  The 
broadcasters,  however,  have  not  given  up  the 
fight. 

In  Cincinnati,  J.  H.  Remick  &  Co.,  a  member 
of  the  American  Society,  brought  a  suit  against 
the  Automobile  Acessories  Co.,  claiming  infringe 
nient  of  one  of  its  numbers  by  broadcasting.  The 
defendant  thereupon  moved  to  dismiss  the  com- 
plaint, and  Judge  Hickenlooper  decided  that  radio 
broadcasting  was  not  per  se  an  infringement  of 
the  plaintiff's  performing  rights,  and  he  threw 
out  the  complaint.  An  appeal  has  now  been  taken 
and  is  on  file  and  should  come  up  about  the  middle 
of  December,  in  the  Circuit  Court  of  Appeals. 
Sixth  Circuit.  The  decision  of  that  court  will 
be  watched  with  great  interest  as  it  means  every- 
thing to  the  authors,  composers  and  publishers  of 
the  country. 

Another  angle  of  that  fight  has  been  waged  in 
New  York  City.  Here,  Remick  commenced  an 
action  against  the  General  Electric  Company, 
claiming  an  infringement  and  asked  for  a  tempor- 
ary injunction.  Judge  Knox  held  that  while  he 
would  not  grant  a  temporary  injunction  in  this 
particular  case,  nevertheless,  broadcasting  could 
constitute  an  infringement.  This  case  was  com- 
plicated by  the  fact  that  the  broadcasting  had 
been  done  from  the  General  Electric  Company 
studio  at  Schenectady,  which  had  wired  in  on  a 
microphone  at  the  Hotel  Kenmare,  at  Albany.  The 
defendant  claimed  that  it  had  a  written  license  or 
permission  to  play  the  particular  composition 
which  was  claimed  to  be  infringed,  and  for  that 
reason,  the  court  held  that  there  might  be  a 
doubt  as  to  the  plaintiff's  right  to  recover;  but 
the  court  intimated  strongly  that  with  this  ques- 
tion out  of  the  case,  there  certainly  could  be  such 
a  thing  as  infringement  by  the  broadcasters,  so 
that  the  decision  was  not  altogether  against  the 
authors,  composers  and  publishers. 

There  are  now  two  decisions  in  favor  of  the 
author,  to  wit — Judge  Lynch's  decision  which  came 
down  last  year  in  the  Bamberger  case,  and  Judge 
Knox's  decision,  and  there  is  one  decision  in  favor 
of  the  broadcaster,  Judge  Hickenlooper's  decision. 

The  law  will  soon  be  clarified  on  that  subject. 


HOUSE  GROSSMAN   &  VORHAUS 
By  A.  John  Elder 

In  a  review  of  the  legal  decisions  of  the 
year  1924,  of  importance  to  the  Film  Industry, 
reference  must  again  be  made  to  the  case  of 
Underbill  vs.  Schenck  and  others,  commonly 
known  as  "The  Passion  Flower"  case,  mention 
of  which  was  made  by  Mr.  William  Seabury  in 
his  learned  article  appearing  in  the  Film  Year 
Book   of  1924. 

This  case  which  had  been  having  the  at- 
tention of  the  Courts  for  two  years  and  had 
already  been  the  subject  of  careful  scrutiny  and 
enlightened  opinions  by  the  Supreme  Court  and 
the  Appellate  Division,  was  finally  passed  upon 
by  the  Court  of  Appeals  and  a  lengthy  opinion 
rendered  by  Mr.  Justice  Cardoza,  which  is  of 
vital    importance    in   the   motion    picture  industry. 

The  facts  of  that  case  in  so  far  as  they  are 
essential  for  our  present  purpose,  are  as  follows : 
The  plaintiff  Underbill,  has  purchased  the  dra- 
matic rights  to  a  certain  play  hv  Jacinto  Bena 
vente,  and  after  such  purchase  Underhill  entered 
into  a  contract  with  the  defendant  Herndon 
whereby  Herndon  was  permitted  to  enjoy  the 
dramatic  rights  upon  a  royalty  arrangement  with 
Underhill.  Subsequently.  Hern_don,  without  the 
consent  of  Underhill,  entered  into  a  contract 
for  the  motion  picture  rights  to  the  play,  which 
contract  the  Courts  held  could  not  be  entered 
into  without  the  consent  of  Mr.  Underhill  since 
the  exhibition  of  the  motion  picture  would  com 
pete  unfairly  with  the  dramatic  production,  and 
cause  a  loss  to  Mr.  Underhill.  the  owner  of  the 
rights  to  the  latter  and  could  therefore  be  re- 
strained by  him. 

The  Court  of  Appeals  sustained  the  injunc- 
tion but  in  fixing  the  extent  of  the  plaintiff's 
recovery  adopted  a  measure  of  compensation 
radically  different  fro  tnthat  adopted  by  the  lower 
Courts.  The  lower  Courts  in  adhering  to  the 
rule  passed  by  the  United  States  Supreme  Court 


615 


in  the  case  of  Morosco  vs.  Manners,  held  thai 
the  owner  of  rights  to  a  dramatic  production 
is  not  at  liberty  to  produce  the  same  play  in 
motion  pictures  without  the  consent  of  the 
author,  and  that  furthermore,  the  auhor  who  has 
licensed  a  dramatic  reproduction  is  himself  under 
a  disability  to  produce  the  play  in  motion  pictures 
since  in  doing  so  he  competes  unfairly  with  the 
owner  of  the  rights  to  the  dramatic  production 
The  lower  Couyt  thereupon  awarded  to  the 
nlaintiff  all  profit  which  the  latter .  received  by 
virtue  of  the  motion  picture  contract.  Justice 
Cardoza  in  his  very  able  opinion  in  the  Court  of 
Appeals,  reaffirmed  the  propriety  of  the  holding  in 
Morosco  vs.  Manners,  putting  Underbill  and 
Herndon  in  the  position  of  author  and  owner, 
respectively.  Since  both  Underbill  and  Hem- 
don  were  interested  in  the  dramatic  production 
and  neither  could  produce  the  play  in  motion  pic 
tures  without  the  consent  of  the  other,  it  was  im- 
proper to  award  to  the  plaintiff  all  the  profits  from 
the  motion  picture  contract  received  by  Herndon 
and  since  the  parties  were  engaged  in  a  joint  yen- 
ture  for  the  purposes  of  the  dramatic  production, 
the  joint  venture  was  to  be  deemed  to  survive 
and  continue  in  respect  to  the  motion  picture 
income.  This  income  was  to  be  treated  as  any 
other  income  to  the  joint  venture  and  distributed 
in  accordance  with  the  terms  of  the  joint  venture 
contract  theretofore  existing  between  the  plaintiff 
and  the  defendant  for  the  use  of  the  dramatic 
production  and  the  direction  of  the  lower  Courts 
that  all  profit  derived  by  Herndon  was  to  lie  paid 
over  to  Mr.  Underbill  was  in  error. 

Simonton  vs.  Gordon 
Another  interesting  decision  of  the  year  may  be 
found  in  the  case  of  Simonton  vs.  Gordon,  et 
al.,  297  Federal  Reported  625,  in  which  case 
Federal  District  Judge  Winslow  held  that  the 
play  "White  Cargo"  was  not  an  infringement  of 
the  copyright  of  a  book  entitled  "Hel's  Play 
ground,"  though  many  similarities  could  be  found 
between  the  book  and  the  play.  The  decision  is 
interesting  because  of  the  hard  and  fast  rules 
framed  by  Mr.  Justice  Winslow  for  the  purpose 
of  determining  what  constitutes  an  infringement  of 
copyright. 

"The  test  of  infringement,"  said  Mr.  Justice 
Winslow  (p.  626).  "where  it  is  alleged  in  such 
cases,  is  whether  the  association  and  grouping  of 
these  characters  and  incidents  is  such  as  to  make 
a  new  conception  or  novel  ar-angement.  so  as  to 
warrant  the  inference  that  the  subject-matter  and 
local  color  are  responsible  for  the  supnosed  similar 
ity,  or  whether,  on  the  other  hand,  the  conception 
of  the  author  seeking  protection  has  in  fact 
been   appropriated   by   the   alleged  infringer. 

As  was  well  said  bv  Tudge  Maver  in  Stevenson 
vs  Harris  (D.  C).  238  Fed.  432,  at  page  436: 
"It  will  never  do  to  hold  that,  because  an  inci 
dent  here  or  there  is  used  in  the  later  production 
which  was  used  in  another  relation  and  situation 
in  the  former  copvrisdited  book  or  play,  there- 
fore the  later  production  infringes  the  copyright 
of  the  former." 

The  foregoing  expressions  will  reveal  that  wheth- 
er or  not  a  play  infringes  upon  a  book  is  properly 
a  quest'on  of  fact  to  be  de'ermined  upon  an 
examination  of  each  case  and  the  fact  that  a  play 
may  contain  incidents  simi'ar  to  thosf  in  a  book 
previously  published  and  copyrighted  does  not 
necessarily  constitute  an  infrinrement. 

Justice  Winslow,  however,  does  not  stop  with 
the  foregoing  but  proceeds  in  his  opinion  with 
the  fol'owinp'  statement  certain  to  be  a  source 
of  further  litigation  in  these  cases:  "hut  the 
question  is  whether  the  writer  of  the  play  has 
used  tV"»  work  of  thp  author  of  the  book  without 
any  independent  work  himself." 

Surely  it  cannot  be  contended  that  this  should 
be  the  r.ole  test  of  whether  or  not  a  play  infringes 
upon  a  copyrighted  hook  for  any  such  ruling 
rather  than  serving  as  a  deterrent  to  unlawful 
infringement  will  pn  far  toward  encouraging 
same.  Should  a  plagarizer  of  plot,  scenes  and 
characters  be  permitted  to  use  the  property  of 
another  merely  because  he  has  done  some  little 
work  on  It's  own  account?  The  law  in  dealing 
with  chattels  does  not  protect  the  converter  who 
has  intentionally  confused  his  chattels  with  those 


of  another,  and  a  plagiarizer  should  be  given  no 
greater  protection.  Independent  work  may  be 
a  fact  in  detrmming  whether  or  not  there  has 
been  an  infringement  hut  certanly  it  must  not  be 
the  sde  and  absolute  test,  for  thert  is  hardly 
an  infringement  even  when  intentional  which  is 
not  accompanied  by  some  independent  wcrl:  on  the 
part  of   the  infringer. 


WILLIAM  KLEIN 

A  number  of  judicial  opinions  have  been  hand- 
ed down  by  our  New  York  courts  during  the 
year  1924  which.  affecting  the  theatrical  and 
motion  picture  industries  as  they  do,  are  worthy 
of  incurring  the  interest  and  study  by  both.  To 
dwell  upon  all  of  thtse  would  entail  passing  beyond 
the  proper  limits  of  this  article  and  I  shall  merely 
attempt  to  analyze  the  more  important  and  in- 
teresting adjudications  of  the  past  year. 

Perhaps  the  most  important  decision  in  recent 
years  affecting  the  movement  of  theatrical  proper- 
ties in  transit  was  that  in  the  case  of  the  Winter 
Garden  Co.  against  The  Globe  &  Rutgers  Fire 
Insurance  Co.  This  case  finally  and  definitely- 
decided  the  rights  of  theatrical  managers  under  the 
ordinary  form  of  policy  which  for  years  had  been 
used  to  insure  theatrical  property  against  the  or- 
dinary risks  of  travel.  Had  the  Insurance  Com- 
pany been  successful  in  its  defense,  theatrical 
managers  would  have  been  forced  to  revolutionize 
their  method  of  transportation  of  theatrical  prop 
erties  or  else  conduct  their  business  without  the 
benefit  of  insurance. 

The  suit  arose  out  of  an  insurance  policy  in 
which  the  Globe  &  Rutgers  Fire  Insurance  Co., 
insured  the  Winter  Garden  Co.  on  the  scenery, 
costume  and  theatrical  properties  used  in  the 
production  known  as  "The  Passing  Show  of  1921." 
against  loss  by  fire,  collision,  etc.  While  this 
policy  was  still  in  effect  the  properties  used  in 
"The  Passing  Show''  were  destroyed  by  fire  en 
route  for  Toronto  to  Montreal,  Canada,  over  the 
Grand  Trunk  Railway.  The  Winter  Garden  Co. 
proceeded  to  file  its  claim  and  asked  to  be  in- 
demnified under  the  terms  of  the  policy.  After 
some  delay,  the  Insurance  Company  refused  to 
pay.  It  based  its  refusal  on  the  ground  that  the 
Winter  Garden  Co.  had  violated  an  essential  term 
of  the  policy  and  had  thereby  forfeited  its  right  to 
indemnity. 

The  clause  of  the  policy  of  which  the  Insurance 
Company  alleged  a  violation  was  the  following 
p  ovision  : 

"The  assured  may  accent  without  prejudice  to 
this  insurance  the  ordinary  bills  of  lading  issued 
by  the  carrier  but  it  is  agreed  that  the  assured 
shall  not  enter  into  any  special  agreement  with  the 
carrier  releasing  them  from  their  common  law  or 
statutory  liability." 

The  Winter  Garden  Co.  denied  that  it  had  vio- 
lated this  provision  and  brought  suit  on  the  policy 
in  the  United  States  District  Court  for  the  South- 
ern District  of  New  York.  The  case  was  bitter- 
ly contested  by  both  sides  before  Judge  Learned 
Hand,  one  of  the  ablest  Judges  on  the  Federal 
Bench.  The  plaintiff  was  represented  by  William 
Klein. 

The  plaintiff  showed  that  it  carried  its  theatri- 
cal properties  by  special  baggage  trains  because 
this  was  the  only  practical  method  of  carying  such 
properties  wi*h  a  road  show  and  that  this  method 
of  transportation  was  the  customary  and  usual  one 
in  the  theatrical  trade.  It  further  showed  that 
in  connection  with  these  movements  it  became 
necessary  to  sign  agreements  with  the  Railroad 
Companies  releasing  them  from  liability  bevond 
the  sum  of  $2,500.00 

The  Insurance  Company  declared  that  these 
agreements  were  in  violation  of  the  provision 
of  the  policy  forbidding  special  agreements  releas- 
ing the  carrier.  Against  this  the  Winter  Garden 
Co.,  contended,  and  successfully,  that  this  re- 
lease of  the  carrier  was  an  integral  part  of  the 
ordinary  bill  of  ladings  used  by  all  Railroads  for 
special  baggage  cars  and  that  Railroads  would 
not  supply  special  baggage  cars  unless  such  an 
agreement  was  signed.  It  further  showed  that 
under  the  terms  of  the  Interstate  Commerce  Act. 
it  would  be  unlawful  for  the  carrier  to  supply 
special  baggage  cars  upon  any  other  terms.  In

view  of  the  fact  that  this  policy  was  designed 
for  the  express  purpose  of  insuring  theatrical 
properties  against  the  recurrent  risks  of  travel, 
the  plaintiff  argued  that  these  agreements  with  the 
carrier  must  he  regarded  as  the  ordinary  agree 
ments  referred  to  and  expressly  allowed  by  the 
terms  of  the  policy. 

The  Court  sustained  this  view  in  a  full  and 
well  considered  opinion.  It  held  that  theatrical 
companies  were  not  required  to  completely  revo  u- 
tionize  their  long  established  practices  in  order 
to  come  within  the  terms  of  the  usual  insurance 
policv.    As  the  Court  stated  in  its  opinion  : 

"The  policv  must  have  been  understood  to  al 
low  the  assured  to  do  his  business  in  a  reason 
\b\e  way." 

The  Court  held  that  managers  were  not  bound 
to  ship  by  freight  or  express  to  avoid  the  neces- 
sity of  signing  the  necessary  agreement  with  the 
carrier,  limiting  the  carrier's  liability.  The 
Court  stated : 

"It  would  be  an  unreasonable  restriction  upon 
the  assured's  business  because  it  would  compel 
him  to  send  his  troupe  of  players  separate  from  his 
baggage,  which  must  go  by  express  in  the  United 
States,  and  in  Canada  by  express  or  freight.  This 
would  involve  delays  which  would  often  lose  sey 
eral  performances  and  prevent  any  certainty  in 
booking.  The  troupe  must  be  kept  idle  while 
the  costumes,  etc.  were  on  the  road.  If 
anything  of  the  sort  was  expected  it  was  only 
reasonable  to  express  it  more  clearly.  It  is  in- 
credible that  the  assured  should  have  consented 
to  it,  if  it  had  been  expressed.  Policies  often 
enough  require  minor  modifications  in  the  as- 
sured's way  of  doing  business  but  this  was  radical 
and  not  to  be  inferred  from  language  apparently 
designed  for  no  such  purpose." 

*  *  *  "If  the  assurer  had  intended  to  confine 
the  assured  to  that  kind  of  carriage,  which  no- 
body in  the  business  ever  used,  it  was  incumbent 
upon  him  to  say  so  more  directly." 

This  decision  now  stands  as  a  landmark  in  the 
field  of  theatrical  practices.  It  assures  managers 
that  they  can  continue  to  follow  the  usual  prac- 
tices  of  the  trade  without  forfeiting  their  rights 
under  the  ordinary  policy  for  such  risks. 

No  doubt  the  outstanding  decision  affecting 
the  relationship  of  managers  and  actors  was  that 
rendered  in  the  action  instituted  by  the  Producing 
Managers  Association  against  the  Managers  Pro- 
tective Association  and  the  Actors  Equity  Asso- 
ciation. Recause  of  its  tremendous  importance, 
this  litigation  was  closely  followed  by  all  who 
were  in  any  manner  connected  with  the  theatrical 
business.  Its  effect  was  felt  alike  in  both  legi- 
timate theatrical  and  motion  picture  circles,  and 
while  the  case  immediately  involved  only  the 
stage,  it  established  a  precedent  which  will  con- 
trol the  relations  of  the  motion  picture  producers 
and  the  artists  they  employ  and  the  problems  in- 
cidental to  such  employment  for  many  years  to 
come. 

In  that  case  the  Producing  Managers  Associa- 
tion sought  to  restrain  a  group  of  managers  head- 
ed by  Lee  Shubert  composing  the  Managers  Pro 
tective  Association,  from  executing  a  ceratin  con- 
tract with  the  Actors  Equity  Association.  The 
particular  clause  of  the  contract  which  aroused 
the  ire  of  the  Producing  Managers  Association  was 
the  provision  whereby  the  Managers  Protective 
Association  guaranteed  an  eighty  per  cent  Equity 
representation  in  all  casts.  The  injunction  against 
the  execution  of  this  contract  was  sought  on  the 
ground  that  the  said  contract  was  a  conspiracy, 
unlawfully  restraining  the  managers  and  actors 
not  members  of  Equity  in  the  conduct  of  their 
business 

A  temporary  injunction  was  granted  without 
notice  and  the  Producing  Managers  Association 
then  moved  to  have  this  injunction  made  perma 
nent.  The  motion  was  argued  before  Mr.  Justice 
McCook.  and  denied  by  him. 

In  his  opinion  he  sustained  the  agreement  be 
tween  the  Managers  Protective  Association  and 
Equity  as  a  proper  and  lawful  one.  in  no  wise  in- 
fringing upon  the  rights  of  either  managers  or 
actors  who  were  not  members  of  Equity. 


In  his  well  considered  opinion,  Mr.  Jusitce  Mc- 
Cook said : 

"The  contract  cannot  be  said  improperly  to  in- 
terfere with  competition,  since  admittedly  more 
than  90  per  cent  of  actors  are  already  members  of 
Equity,  so  that  the  proportion  of  80  Equity  mem- 
bers to  20  non-members  provided  for  is  not  on 
its  face  unreasonable  or  conducive  to  greater  con- 
trol of  the  profession  than  already  existed. 

"The  requirement  that  non-members  during 
participation  shall  pay  their  share  of  expenses 
while  not  obligated  to  join  the  association  is  ap- 
parently objectionable.  We  have  already  seen  that 
the  members  of  the  plaintiff  association  may  share 
in  the  benefits  of  the  contract.  There  is  no  duress, 
as  numerous  authorities  hold,  where  the  interest  of 
non-members  and  not  unlawful  compulsion  make: 
the  argument  for  joining.  Altogether  the  plain- 
tiff has  failed  to  show  that  the  contract  of  May 
12.1924,  and  the  defendants'  combination  are  void 
and  illegal  as  in  restraint  of  trade  or  in  violation 
of  the  civil  and  penal  laws  of  this  State  or  of  the 
penal  laws  of  the  United  States.  (Bossert  vs. 
Dimy,  221  N.  Y.  342.)" 

Turning  to  a  wholly  different  phase  of  the  law, 
one  finds  among  the  reported  cases  for  this  year, 
a  decision  zealously  guarding  the  rights  of  an 
author  in  his  relations  with  the  producer.  The 
.Fox  Film  Corporation  purchased  from  F.  L. 
Packard  the  sole  and  exclusive  picture  rights  to 
a  story  written  by  him  and  known  as  "The  Iron 
Rider."  Packard  charged  that  the  picture  which 
was  made  bore  no  resemblance  to  his  story,  but 
nevertheless,  used  his  name.  Although  Packard 
had  authorized  the  use  of  his  name  in  connection 
with  his  own  composition,  lie  claimed  damages 
for  the  use  of  his  name  in  connection  with  a 
dissimilar  plot. 

The  Appellate  Division  held  that  the  rights  of 
the  Fox  Film  Corporation  was  strictly  limited  by 
the  contract  and  that  if  Packard's  name  was  used 
in  connection  with  an  entirely  different  story  the 
defendant  "was  appropriating  something  which  it 
had  not  purchased  of  the  plaintiff  and  for  which 
it  had  given  the  plaintff  no  value." 

The  far-reaching  importance  of  this  decision  is 
apparent.  Very  often  a  producer  purchases  a 
story  or  play  from  an  author  merely  because  of 
the  popularity  and  value  of  a  title  or  of  the  au- 
thor's name.  Yet  if  the  necessary  precautions 
are  not  taken  in  drawing  the  contract  between 
the  parties,  the  producer  may  find  himself  con- 
fronted with  a  situation  where  he  may  not  use 
the  author's  name  and  title  unless  he  produces 
substantially  the  same  play  or  story  which  was 
originally  written. 

At  stated  intervals  our  courts  are  called  upon  to 
solve  the  legal  problems  of  the  distributor.  The 
Alhambra  Amusement  Company,  an  exhibitor  at 
Utica,  New  York,  claimed  to  have  a  contract  with 
the  Associated  First  National  Pictures,  Inc.,  under 
which  they  were  to  be  furnished  with  pictures  for 
a  certain  period  of  time,  by  the  latter,  who  brought 
suit  against  them  for  damages. 

It  seems  that  the  defendant,  First  National 
Pictures,  Inc.,  had  acted  through  a  distributing 
agent  known  as  the  Exchange  and  that  it  was  con- 
sidered the  parent  company  of  the  Exchange. 
First  National  never  signed  the  contract  relied  on 
by  the  exhibitor  but  it  was  alleged  that  it  was 
chargeable  with  the  actions  of  the"  Exchange,  who 
it  was  claimed,  was  its  duly  authorized  agent. 
The  Alhambra  Amusement  Company  also  claimed 
ratification  of  the  contract  because  one  of  the 
pictu-es  had  been  delivered  thereunder.  The  de- 
fense was  that  the  contract  contained  a  provision 
that  it  did  not  become  valid  unless  executed  bv 
the  defendant  in  New  York 

In  spite  of  the  fact  that  First  National  sup- 
plied one  picture,  the  court  refused  to  recognize 
the  exhibitor  as  one  of  its  regular  franchise  holders, 
applying  the  ancient  legal  doctrine  of  the  Statute 
of  Frauds,  requiring  all  contracts  not  to  be  per- 
formed in  one  year,  to  be  in  writing  and  sub- 
scribed  by   the  person   chargeable  thereon. 

The  now  general  exhibition  of  motion  pictures 
mi  Broadway  at  prices  which  are  almost  on  a 
parity  with  those  charged  for  admission  to  legiti- 
mate theatrical  attractions,  makes  the  motion  pic- 


617 


ture  exhibitor  share  t lie  problem  of  the  theatrical 
manager  in  his  relations  with  the  ticket  speculator. 

The  New  York  Legislature  enacted  a  law  re 
quiring  ticket  speculators  to  obtain  a  license  and 
limiting  the  price  for  which  they  may  resell 
tickets,  to  50  cents;  over  the  regular  charge  for 
admission.  Reuben  Wellar.  a  speculator,  ap 
pealed  from  a  conviction  for  a  violation  of  the 
law,  claiming  that  the  statute  was  unconstitu- 
tional. 

The  Court  of  Appeals  held  that  the  law  was 
constitutional  and  that  the  Legislature,  in  enacting 
the  same,  was  properly  exercising  its  police 
powers.  Judge  Lehman,  in  a  very  forcible  and 
well-written  opinion  said,  in  part : 

"The  existence  of  extortion  due  to  present 
unregulated  conditions  in  the  business  of  resell- 
ing tickets  of  admission  to  places  of  public 
amusement  is  widely  recognized ;  the  abuse  is  due 
to  acts  of  the  ticket  brokers  alone  or  in  con- 
junction with  producers,  and  these  acts  are  cal- 
cluated  to  injure  large  numbers  of  the  public 
in  connection  with  a  business  which  is  at  least 
to  some  degree  affected  with  a  public  interest. 
The  legislature  under  the  police  power  has  in 
our  opinion,  clearly  the  right  under  these  cir- 
cumstances to  attempt  to  remedy  the  abuse.  The 
proposed  remedy  encroaches  upon  the  liberty  of 
the  individual  only  to  the  extent  that  the  legis- 
lature might  properly  regard  as  reasonably  cal- 
culated to  remedy  the  abuse,  and  the  people  have 
placed  upon  the  legislature  the  responsibility  of 
determining  whether  the  remedy  is  wise  and  will 
promote  the  public  welfare." 


O'BRIEN,    MALEVINSKY    &  DRISCOLL 

It  would  be  impossible  to  undertake  to  discuss 
all  the  decisions  in  this  industry  which  might 
be  of  interest  without  transgressing  unduly  upon 
the  limits  of  space. 

Therefore,  we  shall  confine  ourselves  to  a  brief 
discussion  of  one  case  decided  by  the  Appellate 
Division  of  the  Supreme  Court  of  New  York, 
in  the  First  Department  in  December,  1923,  which 
we  regard  as  being  of  unusual  interest  and  of 
vital  importance  to  the  industry  because  of  the 
light  it  throws  upon  the  relations  of  authors  and 
producers,  and  because  it  demonstrates  the  falla- 
cy of  ideas  which  had  previously  existed  in  the 
motion  picture  industry. 

It  has  been  thought  by  producers  that  when 
they  purchased  the  motion  picture  rights  of  a 
story,  they  acquired  the  right  to  do  with  the 
story  as  they  pleased,  in  the  way  of  changing, 
re-writing  and  re-titling  and  the  like.  Indeed, 
it  has  been  jestingly  said  that  a  producer  would 
buy  the  motion  picture  rights  of  a  story  and  then 
proceed  to  have  an  entirely  new  story  written 
for  motion  picture  purposes  and  give  it  a  new 
name,  leaving  cause  to  wonder  what  the  producer 
really  bought.  Jesting  apart,  it  is  certain  that 
great  changes  have  frequently  been  made  in  the 
course  of  manufacturing  a  motion  picture  based 
thereon,  and  it  is  common  knowledge  that  when 
stories  of  wide  reputation  have  been  puchased  for 
motion  picture  rights,  the  resulting  photoplay  Has 
been  exhibited  under  a  name  entirely  different 
from  the  name  of  the  story.  Whether  or  not 
such  changes  are  expedient  is,  of  course,  a  matter 
for  the  judgment  of  the  producer,  but  a  question 
beyond  that  of  the  expediency  now  arises.  No 
longer  can  the  producer  assume  that  he  can  do 
anything  that  he  pleases  with  the  book.  His 
rights  are  very  much  more  limited  than  this.  Such 
is  the  effect  of  the  decision  in  Frank  L.  Packard 
vs.  Fox  Film  Corporation,  207  App.  Div..  311. 
This  case  came  before  the  Court  on  a  motion 
to  dismiss  the  complaint  for  failure  to  state  a 
cause  of  action.  The  situation  as  disclosed  by  the 
complaint  was  as  follows:  The  plaintiff  was  a 
writer  of  fiction  and  was  the  author  and  owner 
of  a  story  known  as  "The  Iron  Rider."  He 
entered  into  a  contract  with  the  defendant  by 
which  he  sold  and  transferred  to  the  defendant  the 
sole  and  exclusive  motion  picture  rights  to  the 
story  and  authorized  the  defendant  to  make  a 
motion  picture  version  of  the  story  and  use  his 
name  in  connection  therewith.  After  this  contract 
was  made,  the  defendant  released  a  photoplay  under 


the  name  of  "The  Iron  Rider,"  representing 
that  plaintiff  was  the  author,  but,  as  a  matter  of 
fact,  the  picture  was  in  no  way  taken  from 
plaintiff's  story  but  was  based  upon  an  entirely 
diqerent  story,  separate  and  distinct  and  in  no 
way  connected  with  the  plaintiff's  literary  prod- 
uct. Subsequently,  the  defendant  made  another 
motion  picture  photoplay,  which  was  founded 
upon  plaintiff's  story,  and  this  photoplay  was  ex- 
hibited under  the  title  "Smiles  Are  Trumps,"  it 
being  represented  that  plaintiff  was  the  author 
of  this  sto;y  also.  The  plaintiff  brought  his 
action  setting  up  two  separate  causes  of  action, 
the  first  claiming  damages  for  defendant's  use 
of  his  name  and  the  title  of  his  story  in  con- 
nection with  a  story  which  was  not  written  by 
him,  and  the  second,  based  upon  the  use  of  his 
name  and  his  story  under  a  title  which  was  not 
the  title  of  the  story  which  he  had  written.  The 
position  assumed  by  the  respective  parties  on  the 
argument  was  squarely  defined. : 

Plaintiff  claimed  that  what  he  sold  defendant 
was  the  right  to  make  a  motion  picture  photoplay 
out  of  the  story  which  plaintiff  had  written,  and 
to  exhibit  such  photoplay  under  the  title  "The 
Iron  Rider,"  being  the  title  of  his  story  as  it 
appeared  in  print.  Plaintiff  further  claimed  that 
this  was  the  limit  of  defendant's  right  and  that 
any  different  use  of  plaintiff's  literary  product  was 
an  infringement  of  his  rights. 

The  position  of  the  defendant  was  that  it  had 
bought  the  story  and  the  title  to  deal  with  as 
it  pleased,  for  motion  picture  purposes,  and  that 
it  might  split  what  it  had  acquired  into  two  separ- 
ate parts  and  use  each  one  separately,  attaching 
the  title  of  plaintiff's  story  to  a  story  which  was 
not  plaintiffs,  and  exhibiting  plaintiff's  story  under 
a  title  which  had  never  before  been  connected 
therewith. 

The  the  Trial  Court,  the  battle  was  a  drawn 
one.  The  Trial  Judge  held  that  plaintiff  had 
a  cause  of  action  for  the  showing  of  a  story 
not  written  by  him  under  the  title  of  his  story 
but  that  he  had  no  cause  of  action  for  the 
exhibition  of  his  story  under  a  title  different  from 
that  which  he  had  chosen  for  it.  lioth  parties 
appealed  and,  in  the  Appellate  Court,  the  plain- 
tiff achieved  complete  success.  The  Appellate 
Court  held  (affirming  the  lower  Court  in  this  re- 
spect) that  plaintiff  had  a  cause  of  action  for 
the  exhibition  of  a  story  not  written  by  him  under 
the  title  "The  Iron  Rider,"  and  also  held  (re- 
versing the  Trial  Court  in  this  respect)  that  plain- 
tiff had  a  cause  of  action  for  the  exhibition  of 
his  story  under  a  ti'.Ie  other  than  which  he  had 
chosen  for  it. 

With   respect   to   the   use  of   the   genuine  title 
with  a  spurious  story,  the  Appellate  Division  said: 
"The  law  is  well  settled  that  the  author  of 
a    literary    work    possesses    a    property  right 
therein  and  that  such  property  right  is  sub- 
ject  to   purchase  and  sale  the  same  as  any 
other  personal  property  and  is  subject  to  the 
same  rules  as  govern   the   sale  of  any  other 
form  of  personal  property.     Whatever  rights 
the  defendant  acquired  to  use  said  story  and 
in  connection  therewith    *rere  limited  by  the 
terms  of  the  contract  and  when  defendant  ex- 
ceeded the  rights  thus  acquired  and  used  plain- 
tiff's   name    in    connection    with    an  entirely 
d'fferent   story,    defendant    was  appropriating 
something  which  it  had  not  purcnased  of  the 
plaintiff  and  for  which  it  had  given  the  plain- 
tiff no  value." 
With  respect  to  the  use  of  the  genuine  story 
with  a  spurious  title,  the  Court  said: 

"The  Trial  Court  in  a  brief  memorandum 
stated  that  defendant's  motion  was  granted  as 
to  the  second  cause  of  action  upon  the  ground 
that  it  was  not  alleged  therein  that  under 
the  agreement  relied  on  by  the  plaintiff  the 
defendant  was  obligated  to  n-ive  to  the  motion 
picture  the  same  title  as  the  plaintiff's  story. 
We  are  unable  to  see  the  force  of  such  reason- 
ing. By  its  contract  with  the  plaintiff  the 
defendant  acciuired  the  right  to  make  a  mo- 
tion picture  based  uoon  the  plaintiff's  story 
under  the  title  of  "The  Iron  Rider,"  and  in 
connection    therewith    to    advertise    the  same 


618 


by  the  use  of  plaintiff's  name.  The  un- 
authorized  use  of  plaintiff's  name  in  connec- 
tion with  a  story  of  a  different  title  was  a 
distinct  damage  to  the  plaintiff," 
This  decision  was  reached  after  due  considera 
tion,  the  contentions  of  the  respective  parties 
being  exhaustively  briefed  and  argued  at  length 
before  the  Court.  The  decision  with  respect 
to  the  spurious  title  is  pecularily  interesting  be- 
cause in  the  briefs  and  in  the  argument  the 
attention  of  the  Court  was  directed '  to  a  number 
of  well-known  photoplays  which  have  been  ex 
hibited  under  titles  entirely  different  from  those 
of  the  books  on  which  they  were  based.  Appar- 
ently, the  Court  did  not  feel  that  any  custom 
had  been  shown  which  would  control  in  the 
interpretation  of  contracts.  As  a  result  of  this 
decision,  motion  picture  producers  are  put  squarely 
on  notice  that  when  they  buy  the  motion  picture 
rights  for  a  story,  what  they  buy  is  nothing 
more  than  the  right  to  make  a  picture  based 
upon  such  story,  and  to  exhibit  it  under  the  litie 
of  the  story.  If  they  desire  to  acquire  any 
larger  rights,  they  must  be  careful  that  such  rights 
are  explicitly  provided  for  in  the  contract  tor 
motion  picture  rights. 


WILLIAM  M.  SEABURY 

The  final  chapter  of  the  case  of  Binderup  vs. 
Pathe  and  others  which  had  been  pending  in  the 
courts  since  1920  was.  written  in  the  second  trial 
of  that  case  which  occurred  at  Omaha,  Nebraska 
in  the  months  of  May  and  June,  1924. 

At  the  close  of  all  of  the  evidence  the  plaintiff 
could  offer  there  was  the  usual  motion  for  a 
directed  verdict  in  favor  of  the  defendants  which, 
after  several  days  of  argument,  the  Court  granted. 

The  grounds  of  the  decision  were  that  the  acts 
of  the  plaintiff  in  establishing  and  maintaining  his 
so-called  circuit  restrained  and  restricted  competi- 
tion in  Nebraska  and  that  the  simultaneous  refusal 
on  the  part  of  practically  all  of  the  national  dis- 
tributors of  motion  pictures  to  rent  their  films  or 
license  the  plaintiff  to  sub-rent  them  to  members 
of  his  circuit  did  not  restrain  trade  or  restrict 
competition  But  on  the  contrary  promoted  and 
stimulated  it,  as  was  indicated  by  the  undisputed 
fact  that  after  defendants  refused  to  permit  the 
plaintiff  to  sub-rent  their  films  to  members  of 
his  ■  circuit  not  a  theater  of  any  circuit  member 
closed  and  instead  of  the  entire  business  of  all 
the  theaters  on  the  circuit  being  transacted  by 
the  three  or  four  distributors  with  whom  the  plain- 
tiff dealt,  every  distributor  competed  actively 
with  each  other  for  the  trade  and  business  of  the 
entire  circuit  and  its  individual  members. 

The  legality  of  the  acts  of  the  Omaha  Film 
Board  of  Trade  in  this  case  as  well  as  the  legality 
of  the  refusal  of  the  defendants  to  supply  the 
plaintiff  with  film  service  except  upon  security 
acceptable  to  them,  was  also  upheld. 
In  this  connection,  the  Court  said: 

"The  recommendation  that   was  implied  in 
the  circulation   of  the   Blue   List   appears  to 
me  to  be  such  a  recommendation  as  such  a 
body    could    lawfully    make.     We    have  had 
many  cases  cited  here  where  the  circulation 
of  blue   or   black   lists   formed   a   part  of  the 
transaction  and  proof.    It  all  depends  on  what 
the  meaning  and  purpose  of  the  blue  list  is. 
If    the    blue    card    is    distributed    as    it  was 
in  the  Druggists  Case  *  *  *  to  help  in  the 
conspiracy  to  suppress  and  stifle  competition  ; 
it  had  a  tendency  to  work  that  end  ;  that  was 
its   purpose,   so   understood  by   the  recipient. 
In  this  case  it  appears  to  have  meant  no  more 
than  that  the   Board  of  Trade  and   its  com 
mittee   had   investigated   charges   against  Mr. 
Binderup  and  thought  they  were  true  and  thai 
on  account  of  his  practices  they  recommended 
that  security  be  taken  from  him." 
The  proof  of  the  plaintiffs  alleged  damages  in- 
dicated a  lack  of  any  injury  to  the  plaintiff  result 
ing  from  any  unlawful  acts  of  the  defendants  and 
upon  the  plaintiff's  own  proof  the  jury  were  di 
rected  to  find  for  the  defendants  which  they  did. 
Joint  Adventures  in  Motion  Picture  Rights 
One  of  the  most  important  decisions  of  the  year 
is  the  case  of  Underbill  vs.  Schenck  in  tlie  New 


V«,rk  Court  of  Appeals  in  April,  1924  (238  N 
V .  7). 

It  appears  that  Underbill  bought  front  Jacinto 
Beneventi,  a  Spanish  playwright,  the  right  to 
translate  the  play  "La  Malquerida"  and  to  produce 
it  upon  the  English  speaking  stage.  Thereupon 
Underbill  made  a  contract  with  Herndon  under 
which  Underbill  licensed  Herndon  to  produce 
upon  the  stage  the  play  which  had  been  trans 
lated  into  English,  and  retitled  as  "The  Passion 
Flower,"  in  the  United  States  and  Canada.  The 
contract  expressly  declared  that  "no  right  to  the 
production  of  the  play  in  motion  pictures  are  con- 
veyed by  this  agreement." 

The  play  was  produced  upon  the  stage  and 
was  an  immediate  and  great  success.  Both 
U/nderhill  and  Herndon  naturally  wished  to  extend 
their  successful  activities  and  determined  to  pro- 
duce the  play  in  motion  pictures  but  it  was  not 
unnaturally  suspected  that  the  production  of  the 
play  in  pictures  might  be  unauthorized  by  the 
owner  of  the  picture  rights.  Benaventi.  and  unfair 
to  him  since  the  picture  might  and  probably  would 
compete  unfairly  with  the  stage  version  of  the 
same  play. 

Underbill  and  Herndon  thereupon  entered  into 
another  contract  whereby  they  agreed  subject  to 
Beneventi's  approval  to  held  the  picture  rights 
for  their  joint  account,  the  profits  of  the  enter- 
prise to  be  subject  to  a  prescribed  division.  But 
Benaventi  declined  to  consent  because  he  had 
already  disposed  of  his  rights  to  one  Gonzalez. 
When  Underbill  ascertained  this  fact  he  notified 
Herndon  that  the  contract  would  be  cancelled  but 
even  before  the  notice  reached  Herndon  he  had 
already  sought  out  Gonzalez  and  was  negotiating 
with  him  for  an  assignment  of  the  picture  rights 
to  himself.  Herndon  obtained  the  rights  and  pro- 
ceeded to  deal  with  them  as  his  own. 

Hendon  sold  these  rights  to  Joseph  Schenck 
for  $25,000  under  a  contract  in  which  Herndon 
represented  himself  to  be  the  sole  owner  of  the 
rights  and  agreed  to  procure  Underbills'  written 
consent  to  the  use  of  the  title  "The  Passion 
Flower."  Underhill  refused  to  consent  hut  not- 
withstanding his  refusal  Schenck  proceeded  and 
late**  caused  the  picture  to  be  exhibited. 

Underhill  sued  Herndon  and  Schenck  for  an 
accounting  of  the  profits  and  damages  Underbill 
had  sustained  by  reason  of  these  facts.  Herndon 
w a s  held  to  pay  Underhill  $22,500,  the  full  amount 
paid  to  him  bv  Schenck  less  brokers'  commissions 
of  $2,500  while  Schenck  was  held  for  $1,362.41, 
the  net  profits  of  the  picture  after  charging  the 
$25,000  paid  to  Herndon  -as  one  of  the  expenses 
of  production. 

This  judgment  was  modified  by  the  Court  of 
Appeals  by  requiring  Herndon  to  account  only 
for  so  much  of  the  profits  resulting  from  a  sale 
of  the  picture  rights  as  might  equal  the  sum  that 
would  be  payable  to  Underbill  if  the  receipts  of 
the  picture  were  added  to  and  formed  a  part  of 
the  receipts  of  the  spoken  play. 

The  significance  and  importance  of  this  decision 
to  the  motion  picture  industry  is  the  announcement 
based  upon  the  decision  of  the  Supreme  Court 
of  the  United  States  in  Manners  vs.  Morosco 
(252  U.  S.  317)  that  a  licensee  of  the  right  to 
produce  a  drama  on  the  stage  is  not  at  liberty 
to  produce  the  same  play  in  motion  pictures  with 
out  the  consent  of  the  author  or  owner  of  the 
conyright,  with  the  equally  important  announce- 
ment that  the  author  or  owner  who  has  licensed 
and  authorized  the  s'age  production  of  a  drama, 
is  himself  under  a  disability  to  produce  the  play 
in  motion  pictures  since  in  so  doing  he  would 
compete  unfairly  with  the  stage  license. 

Even  before  the  decision  in  Manners  vs.  Mor- 
osco, Judge  Hough  in  Harner  Bros.  vs.  Klaw. 
(232  Fed.  609.  613)  which  related  to  Ben  Hur. 
had  held  that  there  is  an  implied,  a  negative 
covenant  on  the  part  of  the  (grantor)  not  to  use 
the  ungranted  nortion  of  the  copyright  estate  to 
the  detriment  if  not  destruction  of  the  licensee's 
esate. 

The  Court  held  that  Herndon  ns  the  stage  li 
censee  of  Underhill  even  though  he  had  bought 
the  picture  rights  from  Gonzalez  had  no  right 
to  produce  in  pictures  without  the  consent  of 
Underhill  who  owned  the  right  of  stage  production 


619 


and  that  he  was  a  contributing  infringer  with 
Schenck  on  those  rights. 

The  Court  held  Herndon  on  the  basis  of  a 
quasi  partner  of  Underbill's  for  an  abuse  of  trust 
resulting  in  a  diversion  of  the  profits  and  declared 
him  to  be  under  a  duty  to  deal  with  the  competing 
business  as  an  asset  of  the  joint  adventure  in 
which  they  were  both  engaged  in  the  production 
of  the  play  upon  the  stage.  , 
To  demonstrate  the  extent  of  Herndon's  lia- 
bility the  Court  assumed  that  the  picture  yielded 
$182,039.88  as  gross  receipts.  The  addition  of 
such  sum  to  the  receipts  of  the  spoken  play  would 
give  to  Underhill  under  his  contract  five  per 
cent  of  the  first  $4,000,  seven  and  one  half  per 
cent  of  the  next  $3,000,  and  ten  per  cent  of  the 
balance  or  a  total  of  $17,929.98.  The  Court  held 
that  Herndon  should  not  be  required  to  account 
for  more  than  the  proportion  of  the  receipts  that 
would  be  payable  if  the  wrong  had  not  been  done, 
but  that  "for  the  percentages  of  the  gross  re 
ceipts  that  would  thus  be  added  to  the  royalties, 
the  delinquent  fiduciary  must  respond  out  of 
whatever  has  come  into  his  hands  through  the  be- 
trayal of  his  trust." 

Employee  Not  a  Joint  Adventurer 
In  Carroll  vs.  Morosco.  298  Fed  461,  the  Cir 
cuit  Court  of  Appeals  in  the  Second  Circuit  had 
before  it  the  complaint  of  Earl  Carroll  who 
claimed  that  he  was  a  partner  with  Oliver  Mor- 
osco and  Elmer  Harris  in  the  authorship  and 
ownership  and  production  of  a  musical  comedy 
and  that  Morosco  and  Harris  had  conspired  to 
defeat  the  plaintiff's  rights  in  the  sale  and  dis 
position  of  the  motion  picture  righ's  of  the  comedy 
by  a  secret  sale  thereof,  the  plaintiff  claiming  to  be 
entitled  to  one  third  of  whatever  the  defendants 
received  for  those  rights. 

In  affirming  the  Court  below  in  dismissing  the 
plaintiff's  case,  the  Court  said: 

"This  suit  really  grows  out  of  the  fact  that 
Carroll  actually  received  more  than  his  agreed 
3%.  His  endeavor  is  to  rise  from  the  posi 
tion  of  an  employee  to  that  of  "co-author 
and  co-owner"  by  means  of  these  additional 
amounts  paid  him.  But  whether  such  addi- 
tional amounts  were  merely  generous  gratuities 
or  whether  they  grew  out  of  a  custom  in  the 
theater  trade,  is  in  our  opinion  quite  imma 
terial.  The  sole  question  is  whether  by  anv 
dealings  between  plaintiff  and  the  defendants 
or  either  of  them,  the  plaintiff's  contract  of 
employment  made  with  Morosco  was  converted 
into  a  partnership  or  co-ownership.  Evidently 
if  there  was  once  an  agreement  of  employ- 
ment, a  new  meeting  of  minds  was  necessary 
before  the  employee  could  become  a  partner. 
We  agree  with  the  court  below  that  there  is 
no  evidence  of  such  new  meeting.  Therefore, 
the  contract  set  down  in  the  appeal  never 
existed  as  a  matter  of  fact  and  the  appeal 
and  argument  falls  for  lack  of  a  firm  founda- 
tion." 

Damages  for   Breach  of  First   Run  Contract 

The  case  of  Vitagraph,  Inc.  vs.  Park  Theater 
Co.  of  Boston  decided  in  the  Supreme  Court 
of  Massachusetts  contains  several  matters  of  in- 
terest to  the  industry  The  action  was  brought 
to  recover  damages  for  the  breach  of  six  contracts 
for  the  delivery  of  motion  pictures  for  exhibition 
at  the  Park  Theater.  Boston. 

The  defendants  in  July,  1919,  repudiated  the 
contracts  and  refused  to  take,  exhibit  or  pay  for 
the  pictures.  The  plaintiff  recovered  a  verdict 
which  the  Court  reversed  on  appeal. 

The  defendants  first  contended  that  the  con- 
tract was  invalid  for  want  of  mutuality  basing 
the  claim  on  a  clause  of  the  contract  which  gave 
plaintiff  the  right  of  cancellation  on  ten  days' 
notice.  But  the  Court  held  that  the  right  of 
cancellation  was  limited  to  causes  beyond  the 
distributor's  control  and  that  since  the  distributor 
was  bound  to  deliver  the  pictures  to  the  de- 
fendant if  the  pictures  were  available  and  could 
not  dispose  of  them  to  anyone  else  without  breach- 
ing its  contract  with  the  defendant,  this  was 
sufficient  consideration  for  the  limited  right  of 
cancellation  and  that  the  contracts  were  n»t  in- 
valid   for   this  reason. 


The  plaintiff  also  sought  to  recover  the  5% 
rental  tax  on  pictures  which  had  not  been  ex- 
hibited by  the  defendant  and  the  court  held  that 
*uch  recovery  was  not  authorized  by  the  Federal 
Statute. 

The  chief  importance  of  the  case  arises  from  the 
Court's  rulings  on  the  question  of  damages.  The 
trial  court  charged  the  jury  that  the  only  question 
to  be  considered  in  that  connection  was  that  the 
agreed  price  for  these  pictures  was  the  measure 
of  damages  recoverable.  The  Park  Theater  was 
a  first  run  house  and  the  contracts  were  first 
run  contracts.  The  defendant  claimed  that  it  was 
entitled  to  reduce  the  damages  recoverable  a-jainst 
them  for  their  breach  of  the  contracts  to  the 
extent  that  the  plaintiff  had  received  sums  of 
money  for  the  exhibition  of  some  of  the  pictures 
in  question  from  other  first  run  exhibitions  in 
theaters  other  than  the  Park  Theater  and  also 
that  the  plaintiff  could  not  recover  if  it  had  not 
made  proper  efforts  to  reduce  its  damages  by 
renting  the  films  to  other  first  run  theaters. 

In  considering  this  question  the  Court  pointed 
out  that  the  contracts  in  question  were  neither 
contracts  of  sale  nor  for  a  lease.  They  were 
classified  as  contracts  constituting  a  license  and 
a  bailment  (citing  Orbach  vs.  Paramount  Pictures 
Corporation  ,233  Mass.  281.  284)  and  it  was  said 
that  the  usual  rules  of  damages  for  breach  of 
contracts  were  applicable.  After  pointing  out  that 
the  contract  in  the  present  case  was  not  like  a 
sale  where  if  the  transaction  is  consummated  the 
seller  parts  with  all  of  his  interest  in  the  property 
and  that  it  is  not  like  a  lease  of  land  where  the 
lessor  eventually  receives  back  the  land,  the  court 
said : 

"Here   the   distributor   does  not   part  with 
all  for  it  has  the  right  to  the  film  upon  the 
termination  of  the  contract  in  accordance  with 
the  terms ;  and  also  the  ripht  to  dispose  of 
it    thereafter    for    subsequent    exhibitions — but 
if  the  contract  is  consummated  the  distributor 
loses  the  possibility  of  making  first  run  con- 
tracts which  in  the  nature  of  things  cannot 
be   twice   carried    out    in    the   same  district. 
The  plaintiff  after  cancellation  by  the  defend 
ant  was  free  to  sell  the  first  run  rights  to 
others.     What    those    first    run    rights  were 
worth   should   have   been   deducted   from  the 
contract    price    in    determining    the  damages 
actually  resu'ting  from  the  breach." 
The  plaintiff  also  claimed  that  it  had  sustained 
further    damages   in    that   the   pictures   were  not 
exhibited    and    that    it    had    lost    the  incidental 
benefits  resulting  from  exhibition  beyond  the  mere 
loss  of  the  rental  price,  but  the  court  held  that 
the    contract    did    not    require    the    defendant  to 
exhibit  the  pictures  although  the  defendants'  right 
to  exhibit  had  they  wished  to  exhibit  them,  was 
undisputed.     Consequently,  the  court  held  the  de- 
fendant's obligation   was  to  pay  for  the  pictures 
not  necessarily  to  exhibit  them,  and  that  there  could 
be  no  recovery  for  this  item  of  damage  although 
if  the  cont-act  had  imposed  the  absolute  obliga- 
tion  of   exhibit   the  result  might  have  been  dif- 
ferent. 

Interference   with    Contract  Rights 

In  Glucksman  vs  Gillespie  (209  A.  D.  48)  the 
Appellate  Division  of  the  New  York  Supreme 
Court  reversed  a  judgment  in  favor  if  Glucksman 
which  awarded  damages  for  alleged  interference 
with  Glucksman's  rights  in  some  of  the  pictures 
of  the  Select  Pictures  Corporation  throughout 
Central  America.  It  appeared  that  Gillespie  had 
a  contract  wi*h  Select  which  gave  his  firm  the 
exploitation  rights  in  certain  pictures  for  the 
northern  part  of  South  America  and  the  defendants 
had  acted  as  agents  for  an  Argentine  corporation 
which  had  a  similar  contract  with  Select  for  the 
southern  part  of  South  America.  While  both 
contracts  were  in  force,  the  defendants  ordered 
certain  pictures  from  Select  without  specifying 
\\  hether  they  were  for  their  account  as  principals 
or  whether  they  were  for  the  defendant's  account 
as  agents  of  the  Argentine  Company.  Meanwhile 
Select  terminated  its  contract  with  the  Argentine 
corporation  and  made  a  contract  with  Glucksman 
who  ordered  some  of  the  pictures  which  had 
already  gone  forward  to  the  defendants  and  had 
been  exhibited  in  the  territory  which  Glucksman 


620 


had  acquired  which  rendered  them  valueless  to 
him. 

'1  hereupon  Glucksman  sued  the  defendants  for 
damages  in  maliciously  interfering  with  his  con- 
tractual rights  and  relations  with  Select. 

It  appeared  in  the  proof,  however,  thai  the 
defendants  when  apprised  of  what  had  occurred 
made  substantial  efforts  to  correct  the  mistake. 
They  instructed  the  Guaranty  Trust  Co.  through 
whom  the  documents  were  forwarded  to  the  bank 
in  South  America  to  cable  the  latter  to  deliver 
the  shipment  to  Glucksman.  They  also  requested 
the  agents  of  the  steamer  upon  which  shipment  had 
been  made  to  make  the  delivery  of  the  shipment 
to  the  plaintiff  instead  of  to  the  assignee,  and  in 
other  respects  did  what  they  could  to  further  the 
plaintiff's  future  interests. 

The  Court  held  that  the  test  of  the  defend 
ant's  liability  in  an  action  of  this  kind  is  whether 
the  defendants  after  knowledge  of  the  plaintiff's 
righN  hail  maliciously  endeavored  to  injure  the 
plaintiff  by   violating   those  rights 

The  Court  held  that  the  evidence  did  not  dis- 
clos-  such  a  case  at'd  reversed  the  judgment  ob- 
tained by  the  plaintiff  for  this  reason  and  for 
errors  in  the  Court's  charge  to  the  jury. 

Employers'  Liability 
In  Madderns  vs.  Fox  Film  Corp  (205  A  D 
"91,  J  une,  1923),  the  plaintiff  who  was  an  actor 
employed  by  the  Fox  Film  Corn,  was  injured 
while  engaged  in  making  a  motion  'picture.  While 
the  plaintiff  was  being  chased  along  the  edge 
of  a  boat  which  was  tied  to  a  pier  in  Jersey 
City,  he  tripped  over  another  man  and  fell  into 
the  icy  waier  of  the  Hudson  River  and  as  a 
result  contracted  tuberculosis  from  wdiich  he  was 
suffering  at  the  time  of  the  award.  The  State 
Industrial  Board  made  an  award  of  compensation 
to  the  claimant  and  the  Fox  Film  Corporation,  ap- 
pealed from  the  ruling. 

The  chief  question  considered  was  whether  t In- 
case was  within  the  jurisdiction  of  the  State  In- 
dustrial Hoard  or  whether  it  fell  witnin  the  admir- 
alty jurisdiction 

It  appeared  that  the  defendant  was  engaged  in 
the  production  of  motion  pictures  chiefly  on  land 
and  was  not  engaged  in  any  maritime  employment 
that  the  presence  of  the  claimant  on  the  boat  was 
a  mere  incident  of  his  emplovment  contracted 
for  and  primarily  carried  on  within  the  state  of 
New  York  and  that  there  was  no  proof  that  the 
employer  *as  the  owner  or  operator  of  the  boat 
or  in  any  way  engaged  in  aiding  the  boat  in  the 
performance  of  her  mission  as  a  boat. 

Upon  these  facts  the  court  held  that  the  injuries 
were  not  caused  by  a  maritime  wrong  exclusively 
within  the  admiralty  jurisdiction,  that  the  State 
Industrial  Board  had  jurisdiction  and  that  there 
was  evidence  to  sustain  its  findings  in  conse- 
quence of  which  it  affirmed  the  award. 

Copyrights  and   Literary  Property 

In  the  copyright  and  literary  property  field 
several  important  cases  were  decided  during  the 
year  or  last  year  too  late  for  mention  in  last 
year  s  Year  Book. 

In  Fox  Film  Corporation  vs.  Knowles  (261 
L.  S.  326)  the  Fox  Film  Corporation  sought  to 
restrain  dramatic  performances  based  upon  two 
poems.  "Over  the  Hills  to  the  Poor  House"  and 
Over  the  Hills  from  the  Poor  House,"  and  for 
an  accounting  and  for  damages.  The  author  of 
the  poems.  Will  Carleton,  held  a  renewed  copy- 
right for  them  which  expired  about  February  21 
1915.  He  died  on  December  18,  1912  leaving  all 
of  his  property  to  Norman  E.  Goodrich  and  ap- 
pointing him  sole  executor.  On  January  21.  1915, 
the  Executor  applied  for  and  obtained  a  renewal' 
of  the  copyright  to  February  21,  1929.  Eater  the 
exclusive  right  to  dramatize  the  noems  was  as- 
signed to  the  plaintiff. 

The  only  defense  relied  upon  was  that  under 
the  copyright  statutes  the  right  of  renewal  did 
not  vest  in  the  executor  and  that  therefore  the 
copyright  had  expired  and  was  available  for  the 
defendant's  use. 

The  District  Court  dismissed  the  plaintiff's  com 
plaint  upon  this  ground  and  the  Circuit  Court  of 
Appeals  affirmed  the  decision. 


The   Supreme   Court   of  the  United   States  re- 
versed   these    decisions,    however,    and    held  that 
the  executor  might  renew  the  copyright  within  the 
year    prior    to    the    expiration    even    though  the 
author  died  before  its  commencement  so  that  the 
right   to   file  application   had  not  accrued  in  the 
author's  lifetime  and  that  the  statute  intends  that 
an  executor,   there  being  no   widow,   widower  or 
child,   shall  have  the  same  rights  as  his  testator 
might  have  exercised  had  he  continued  to  survive. 
Breach   of   Contract — Literary   Property  Rights 
In  Packard  vs.  Fox  Film  Corp.  (207  A.  D.  311) 
the    complaint    alleged    that    plaintiff    Frank  L. 
Packard   was   the  author   and   owner   of   a  story 
known  as  "The  Tron   Rider."    The  first  cause  of 
the  convlaint  was  that  plaintiff  soM  the  exclusive 
motion  pictures  rights  in  the  story  to  the  defend- 
ants and  authorized  the  production  of  a  motion  pic- 
ture   version   thereof   and   authorized    the   use  of 
plaintiff's  name  in  connection  therewith;  that  de- 
fendant thereafter  released  a  photoplay  under  tin'* 
title  and  i  laiutiff  was  represented  as  its  author  but 
the  picture  was  in  no  way  taken  from  the  story 
hut    was   based   upon   an   entirely   different  story 
separate  and  from  and  in  no  way  connected  with 
the  plaintiff's  story  and  that  the  use  of  plaintiff's 
name  in  connection  therewith  was  false  and  mis- 
leading and  an  unlawful  use  of  plaintiff'.;  name  and 
that   the   use   of  the  title   "The   $roin    Rid"'."  in 
connection  with  a  story  other  than  that  of  which 
the  nlaintiff  was  the  author  was  also  unauthorized. 

The  plaintiff  claimed  $25,000  damages  for  the 
unauthorized  use  of  his  name  as  au.hor  of  the 
story  he  did  not  write  and  $25,000  lor  the  un- 
authorized use  of  the  title  "The,  Iron  Rider"  in 
connection  with  the  picture  based  upon  a  story 
which  was  not  "The  Iron  Rider." 

The  defendant  claimed  that  two  causes  of  action 
had  been  improperly  joined  in  this  charge  but 
the  court  held  otherwise  and  sustained  this  part  of 
the  complaint,  saying: 

"The  law  is  well  settled  that  the  author 
of  a  literary  work  possesses  a  property  right 
therein  and  that  such  property  right  is  subject 
to  purchase  and  sale  the  same  as  any  other 
personal  property  and  is  subject  to  the  same 
rules  as  govern  the  sale  of  any  other  form  of 
personal  property.  Whatever  rights  the  de- 
fendant acquired  to  use  said  story  and  in 
connection  therewith  were  limited  by  the  terms 
of  the  contract  and  when  defendant  exceeded 
the  rights  thus  acquired  and  used  plaintiff's 
name  in  connection  with  an  entirely  different 
story,  defendant  was  appropriating  something 
which  it  had  not  purchased  of  the  plaintiff 
and  for  which  it  had  given  the  plaintiff  no 
value." 

The  second  cause  of  action  alleged  that  the 
plaintiff  had  sold  the  defendant  the  picture  rights 
in  the  story  "The  Iron  Rider"  of  which  he  was 
the  author  but  that  defendant  produced  a  picture 
based  and  founded  upon  the  plaintiff's  story  but 
entitled  it  "Smiles  Are  Trumps"  using  the  plain- 
tiff's name  as  its  originator  and  author. 

The  lower  court  was  of  the  opinion  that  the 
second  cause  of  action  was  not  good  for  the 
supposed  reason  that  the  defendant  was  not  obli- 
gated to  give  the  motion  picture  the  same  name 
as  the  story  because  the  agreement  did  not  speci- 
fically so  provide,  but  the  Appellate  Division  re- 
versed this  part  of  the  decision  of  the  lower  court, 
saying : 

"We  are  unable  to  see  the  force  of  such 
reasoning.  By  its  contract  with  the  plaintiff 
the  defendant  acquired  the  right  to  make  a 
motion  picture  based  upon  the  plaintiff's  story 
under  the  title  "The  Tron  Rider"  and  in  con- 
nection therewith  to  advertise  the  same  by 
by  the  use  of  the  plaintiff's  name.  The  un 
authorized  use  of  plaintiff's  name  in  connec- 
tion with  a  story  of  a  different  title  was  a 
distinct  damage  to  the  plaintiff." 

Copyright  Renewal 

In  Silverman  vs  Sunrise  Pictures  Corporation. 
(290  Fed.  804).  the  Second  Circuit  Court  of 
Appeals  held  that  under  the  Copyright  Act  of 
Ma  ch  4,  1909  when  the  time  for  renewal  of  a 
copyright  arises  and  there  is  no  executor  and  no 
surviving  husband  or  wife  and  no  child,  the  next 


621 


of  kin  of  the  deceased  author  may  properly  re- 
new the  copyright. 

Copyright 

A  subsequent  phase  of  the  case  of  Goldwyn 
Pictures  Corporation  vs.  Howells  Sales  Co.,  re- 
ported in  the  1924  Year  Hook,  (282  Fed.  9), 
came  before  the  court  some  months  after  that 
decision  which  was  to  the  effect  that  since  the 
Goldwyn  company  in  that  case  was  not  the  owner 
of  the  copyright  relied  upon  it  could  not  maintain 
an  action  for  the  infringement  of  that  copyright. 

Later  (292  Fed.  458),  there  was  a  motion  in 
the  same  suit  to  substitute  the  owner  of  the  copy- 
right as  the  plaintiff  instead  pf  the  Goldwyn  Pic- 
tures Corporation  Te  lower  court  denied  the 
motion,  but  the  Circuit  Court  of  Appeals  reversed 
the  order,  the  Court  saying: 

"I  can  see  no  reason  for  forcing  upon 
Stephens  the  purely  formal  and  vexatious  ob- 
stacle of  starting  a  new  suit.  When  prece- 
dents permit,  the  law  should  rid  itself  of  ob- 
structive requirements  which  involve  no  sub- 
stantial interest  and  only  serve  as  hu-dles  in 
the  path  of  the  parties  who  have  suffered 
wrong.'' 


PROTECTING    MOTION    PICTURE  TITLES 

F.  G.  Bradbury,  an  attorney  of  Los  Angeles, 
contributed  the  following  to  The  American  Cine- 
matographer   for  February: 

The  willful  pilfering  of  titles  to  motion  pictures 
js  too  frequent  to  raise  any  doubt  in  the  minds  of 
producers  of  the  urgent  need  of  more  effective 
methods  of  protection  than  have  been  practiced  to 
date. 

The  common  understanding  that  a  name  of  a 
picture  cannot  be  protected  because  the  "copyright" 
merely  protects  the  subject  matter  and  not  the 
title.  While  it  is  a  well  established  principle  of 
law  that  the  copyright  does  not  protect  the  name, 
there  is  a  phase  of  protection  under  the  Trade 
Mark  law  which  does  protect  and  which  by  proper 
application  will  probably  give  the  relief  which  is 
desirable. 

Property  Right 

It  has  been  established  beyond  a  question  of  any 
doubt  that  there  is  in  the  name  of  a  literary 
composition,  play  or  picture,  a  certain  property 
right  and  that  as  such,  protection  may  be  afforded 
against   any  infringement. 

Decisions  Involved 
The  trouble  has  been  where  an  effort  has  beeu 
made  to  apply  this  principle,  decisions  are  befogged 
by  conditions  and  technicalities  in  each  individual 
case,  leaving  the  public  in  doubt  as  to  what  pro- 
tection, if  any,  can  be  secured  for  the  title.  In 
the  early  production  of  motion  picture:;  it  was 
common  practice  to  hold  up  before  the  camera  at 
intervals,  the  printed  title  of  the  picture  or  some 
cither  distinctive  mark,  in  an  endeavor  to  protect 
the  tit'e  by  the  copyright  which  was  subsequently 
secured.  This  proved  ineffective  and  since  abandon 
ment  of  this  method,  the  appropriation  of  titles  by 
those  unauthorized  to  do  so  has  become  common. 
As  fast  as  a  big  run  picture  is  exhibited,  there  is 
an  imitation  of  its  title  to  be  found  "around  the 
corner."  sponging  upon  the  popularity  of  the  suc- 
cessful one. 

Century-Old  Cases 

Scattered  through  court  decisions  dating  as  far 
back  as  1825,  titles  to  publications  were  held  to 
be  a  species  of  property  rights,  bordering  upon 
"trade  marks"  and  as  such  are  properly  for  use 
by  an  originator  in  trade  to  the  exclusion  of 
others. 

"Buster  Brown"  Case 

"Buster  Brown,"  at  the  head  of  a  single  page 
of  comic  section  of  a  newspaper  was  held  to 
constitute  a  valid  trade  mark.  Following  this 
decision  a  case  in  which  "L'Aiglon"  involved  the 
question  of  a  trade  mark  as  applied  to  a  play  was 
answered  by  injunctive  relief  to  protect  the  use  of 
the  title.  Strengthening  the  position  that  a  motion 
picture  title  is  the  proper  basis  for  "trade  mark" 
protection,  in  a  decision  in  the  case  in  which 
"Nick   Carter"   was   the   title   and   character   in  a 


motion  picture,  it  was  held  that  the  class  of  goods 
"motion  pictures"  offered  for  sale  was  entirely 
dissimilar  from  published  stories  by  the  same  title 
and  therefore  not  an  infringement. 

Patent  Office  Recognition 

Following  this,  the  I'nited  States  Patent  Office 
has  recently  recognized  title;  as  legitimate  subject 
matter  for  trade  marks  as  applied  to  motion  pic 
tures  by  registering  several  trade  marks  of  this 
class.  That  there  is  commercial  property  right 
in  motion  picture  films  is  therefore  unquestionable 
and  the  application  of  a  name,  symbol,  phrase  or 
other  mark  of  distinction  may  be  used  as  the  basis 
for  protecting  a  title  used  in  connection  with 
motion  pictures. 

Trade    Mark    Law's  Object 

It  is  the  primary  object  of  trade  mark  law  to 
prevent    one    man    from    stealing    away  another's 
business    and    good    will.      Such    is    punishable  by 
damages  and  will  be  enjoined  by  a  court  of  equity. 
Course  to  Follow 

If  a  producer  of  a  motion  picture  will  promptly 
register  his  title  as  a  trade  mark  in  the  United 
States  Patent  Office,  he  can  secure  to  him-elf  the 
right  to  such  title  to  the  exclusion  of  all  others. 
The  procedure  for  such  registration  is  more  burden- 
some and  technical  than  the  formality  attending  the 
registration  of  a  copyright,  the  examination  by 
the  government  being  more  critical  and  attended 
by  a  thorough  search  to  determine  before  granting, 
the  right  of  the  applicant  to  registration.  Publi 
cation  in  the  Office  Cazett  is  also  conducted  by 
the  government,  giving  the  public  opportunity  for 
opposing  unfair  registration  before  granting. 
Federal  Court  Action 

When  finally  granted  the  owner  or  proprietor 
has  the  right  of  action  against  all  infringers  in 
the  Federal  courts. 

A  search  of  the  government  records  made  by 
an  attorney  especially  familiar  with  such  matters 
can  be  made  to  determine  whether  any  question 
might  arise  as  to  the  free  use  and  appropriation 
of  a  desired  title  before  adoption.  After  such 
search  is  made  and  the  "title"  found  to  be  clear, 
application  for  registration  should  be  filed  and 
when  registered  the  title  should  bear  the  notice 
"U.  S.  Trade  Mark  Registered."  The  expense 
of  registration  small  as  compared  with  the  amount 
involved  in  most  productions  and  it  would  seem 
evident  that  this  measure  of  protection  should 
appeal  to  producers.  In  a  somewhat  similar  man- 
ner, registration  of  trade  marks  can  be  secured 
in  nearly  all  foreign  countries  and  here  again 
protection  of  this  character  is  desirable  to  prevent 
the  unauthorized  appropriation  of  the  rightful 
owner's  title. 

PENNA.    DECISION    ON  CARNIVAL 

On  June  3,  Attorney  General  Woodruff  of  Penn- 
sylvania ruled  that  carnival  attractions  that  permit 
gambling  and  other  kindred  illegal  practices  are 
to  be  denied  the  financial  aid  of  the  state  in  the 
future.  Picture  men  in  general  were  elated  at  the 
issuance  of  this  ruling,  figuring  that  it  will  result 
in  objectionable  carnival  companies  being  put  out 
of  business. 


K.  C.  EXHIBITORS  LOSE  MUSIC  TAX  CASE 

On  June  6,  after  a  long-awaited  decision  in  a 
test  music  tax  case  against  eight  exhibitors,  who 
were  tried  jointly  with  four  music  companies  as 
plaintiffs.  Judge  Arba  S.  Van  Valkenburgh  in  the 
Federal  Court  at  Kansas  City  awarded  damages  and 
attorneys'  fees  in  12  decrees  amounting  to  $4,200 
against  exhibitors.  The  decision  followed  the  result 
of  two  years'  work  on  the  part  of  the  theater  men. 
The  principal  point  at  issue — the  contention  upon 
which  Samuel  A.  Hardy,  attorney  for  the  exhibi- 
tors, hoped  for  victory — was  not  mentioned  in  the 
written  decision  of  the  court,  thus  leaving,  accord- 
ing to  Hardy,  a  hope  for  repeal.  The  plaintiffs 
were:  Leo  Feist,  Inc.,  Jerome  H.  Remick  and 
Co.,  Irving  Berlin,  and  the  Broadway  Music  Co. 
The  defendants  were:  Gilham  Amusement  Co., 
the  Gilham,  Capitol  Enterprises,  the  Gladstone; 
H.  H.  Barrett,  the  Colonial;  A.  K.  Boussad.  World- 
Motion;  Mrs.  Lucy  Weaver,  the  Mozart;  Stockdale 
Bros.,  The  Empire;  A.  M.  Eisner,  the  Broad 
mour;  T.  T.  Wilson,  the  Queens — all  of  Kansas 
City.

I  send  this  list,  not  as  representing  the  ten 
best  pictures  of  the  year,  because  nobody  knows 
that.  T  wish  it  understood  these  are  the  pictures 
which  I  enjoyed  the  most.

TRANSCRIPT 

Why  ten?  That's  an  arbitrary  number.  One 
year's  product  varies  from  another's,  and  if  in 
any  one  year  there  are  even  five  original  produc- 
tions of  permanent  value,  then  that  year  deserves 
to  be  underlined  in  red. 

Why  ten?     Why  not  merely  list  those  few  film^ 
that    seem    of    real    significance,    not    just  passing 
entertainment,    not    just    photographed  stage-plays, 
not  just  adaptations  from  novels,  not  just  rehashed 
mucical  comedies,  not  just  still-horn  and  prematurely 
buried   "costume"  pieces?     Why  not  make  the  list 
lor  1924  up  as  follows:

A  large  number  of  pictures  received  upwards  of  from  one  to  15  votes,  hut  lack  of 
space   forbids  this   tabulation   being  recorded  here. 

Herewith  are  found  the  headlines  appearing  in  conjunction  with  the  reviews  of 
the  ten  best  pictures  of  the  year  as  they  appeared  in  the  various  Sunday  issues  of 
The  Film  Daily: 

THE  THIEF  OF  BAGDAD 

Probably  the  Most  Magnificent  Production  of  Its  Kind  Ever  Made. 
A  Fairy  Tale  Atmosphere  with  Doug  Constantly  in  the  Foreground  of  a  Very  Thin  Story 

THE  SEA  HAWK 

Mighty  Fine  Picture  with  Strong  Box  Office  Possibilities. 
Should  Rank  Among  Outstanding  Successes  of  Coming  Season. 

MONSIEUR  BEAUCAIRE 

Valentino  Makes  Dazzling  Return  in  Tarkington's  Highly  Colorful  Romance.  Paramount 
Supplied  the  Money  Bags  and  Sidney  Olcott  Did  the  Rest. 
A  Splendid  Production. 

BEAU  BRUMMEL 

Outstanding     Striking-    Performance    of     Star     Lifts     This     Picture  Tremendously. 
Delightful    Love    Story    Should    Interest   Your   Women  Patrons. 
Picture  Runs  Entirely  Too  Long. 

SECRETS 

The  Finest  Box  Office  Attraction  Norma  Has  Had  in  a  Long  Time.    Sure  Fire  For 
Women  and  Likely  To  Be  Recorded  as  One  of  the  Best  Pictures  of  the  Season. 

THE  MARRIAGE  CIRCLE 

One  of  the  Finest  Comedies  Ever  Presented  Filled  with  the  Newest  Ideas  of  Direction. 
A  Charming  Contribution  Which  Will  Hold  Its  Place  Easily 
Among  the  Very  Best  of  the  Year 

THE  TEN  COMMANDMENTS 

A  Most  Notable  Contribution  to  the  Screen 

GIRL  SHY 

Not  as  Continuous  a  Scream  as  One  or  Two  Previous  Lloyd  Pictures  But  Surely  Very, 
Very  Funny  and  With  a  Comed3--Thrill  Chase  That  Is  the  Best' of  Its  Kind. 

ABRAHAM  LINCOLN 

A  Really  Great  Picture.    Sincerely  and  Finely  Done,  This  Should  Prove  of  Tremendous 
Value  for  Years  to  Come.    Another  Epic  of  Almost  the 
Same  Import  as  "The  Covered  Wagon" 

AMERICA 

Once  Again  the  Charging  Horsemen  Give  the  Thrill.    Once  Again  Griffith  Triumphs 
Even  Tho  A  Great  Epic  Has  Been  Allowed  to  Dwindle  at  Times  to  Sheer 
Melodrama.    But  the  Public  Will  Probably  Eat  It  Up. 


Editor's  Note:  It  is  hoped  that  for  the  list  of  Ten  Best  for  the  1026  Year  Book  that 
newspaper  critics  will  invite  their  readers  to  prepare  lists,  and  from  these  make  up  a  list 
of   Ten  which  will  represent  the  opinions  of  millions  of  readers.

Bureau  of  Foreign  and  Domestic  Commerce  Reports 


AUSTRIA 

By    Trade    Commissioner    William    Ford  Upson, 
Vienna 

May  28,  1924 

There  is  a  large  market  in  Austria  for  recent 
films  of  the  better  class  to  take  the  place  of  the 
outworn  films  now  being  shown.  The  chief  handi- 
cap to  any  such  change  is  the  fact  that  distribution 
rights  in  Austria  can  only  be  obtained  through  a 
number  of  middlemen  who  add  materially  to  the 
distribution  cost  without  contributing  to  the  trans- 
action. Therefore,  the  Excelsior  Film  Co.,  which 
is  a  leading  distrbutor  of  American  motion  pic- 
tures, feels  that  if  it  could  establish  direct  contact 
with  American  lessors  of  film  rights  it  could  ex- 
hibit first-class  motion  pictures  at  a  cost  within 
reach  of  the  public. 

Some  such  arrangement  would  be  particularly- 
valuable  at  this  time.  American  films  are  very 
popular  in  Austria,  and  it  would  be  most  unfor- 
tunate to  impair  this  popularity  by  sending  to 
Europe  old  motion  pictures  which  have  outlived 
their  usefulness  in  the  United  States.  German 
motion  pictures,  on  account  of  difficulties  at  home, 
are  losing  ground  in  the  Austrian  market. — April 
14,  1924. 

AUSTRALIA 
By  Consul  Norman  L.  Anderson,  Melbourne. 

There  are  in  Australia  approximately  800  mov- 
ing picture  theaters.  This  fignre  varies  from  time 
to  time ;  new  enterprises  start  and  others  go  out 
of  the  business;  but  from  carefully  gathered  statis- 
tics, this  estimate  is  most  nearly  accurate.  The 
808  enterprises  are  distributed  as  follows:  City, 
60;  suburban.  257;  country,  491.  The  average 
seatin  gcapacity  of  the  60  city  theaters  is  1,500. 
In  the  491  country  houses  seats  are  very  unevenly 
distributed,  but  the  majority  of  public  halls  hold 
from  200  to  1,00  people. 

A  weekly  schedule  of  films  exhibited  in  various 


houses  is  as  follows : 

Continuous    performance    38 

Showing  daily    152 

Fixe  nights  per  week    4 

Four  nights  per  week   '   29 

Three  nights  per  week    60 

Two  nights  per  week    179 

One  night  per  week    346 

Total  per  week    808 


At  least  90  per  cent  of  the  films  used  in  Aus- 
tralia are  imported  from  the  United  States,  and 
of  the  total  imports  97  per  cent  are  entered 
through  the  State  of  New  South  Wales,  the  city  of 
Sidney  being  the  center  for  the  film  trade  in 
Australia. 

A  board  of  censorship  is  established  in  Aus- 
tralia, under  which  system  every  film  imported 
must  be  submitted  to  a  legalized  censor  board 
which  has  arbitrary  power  to  exclude,  cut,  or 
change  any  film,  either  in  whole  or  in  part.  The 
films  censored  in  Australia  during  the  year  1922 
and  the  countries  from  which  they  were  imported 
are  as  follows : 


Films 

United   States   2,164 

England    130 

Canada    40 

Germany    13 

France    86 

Italy    9 

New  Zealand    3 

Holland    1 

Papua    1 

@rigin  Unknown    56 

Total   2,503 

The  average  length  of  a  reel  may  be  placed  at 
about   1.000   feet.     As  5,930  reels   were  censored 


the  total  footage,  on  this  basis,  would  be  approxi- 
mately 5,930,000  feet. 

The  types  of  pictures  held  in  greatest  favor 
in  Australia  appear  to  be  (a)  comedies,  or  dramas 
with  a  marked  vein  of  comedy ;  (b)  modern 
dramas;  and  (e)  films  of  a  sensational  character. 
The  educational  picture  does  not,  as  a  rule,  enjoy 
popularity,  nor  do  scenic  pictures,  unless  they  are 
out  of  the  ordinary.  News  reels  depicting  world 
incidents  arouse  considerable  interest.  Propaganda 
pictures  and  films  patriotically  American  are  not 
successful. 

Generally  speaking,  individual  "stars"  have  about 
the  same  relative  success  in  Australia  that  they 
have  in  the  United  States.  Artistic  achievement 
is  international  and  is  recognized  about  equally  in 
all  civilized  countries. — Jan.  28,  1924. 

BALTIC  PROVINCES 
By  Emil  Kokich,  Secretary  to  Trade  Commissioner, 
Riga 

The  maiket  for  foreign  produced  motion  pictures 
in  the  Baltic  Republics  of  Latvia,  Estbonia  and 
Lithuania,  having  a  combined  population  of  over 
5.000,000  inhabitants,  has  steadily  improved  since 
1922,  when  a  total  of  only  50  motion  picture 
theaters  was  registered  for  all  three  countries 
At  present  there  are  about  85  such  theaters  in 
these  States,  Esthonia  having  about  30,  Latvia. 
30  and  Lithuania,  25.  The  majority  of  these 
theaters  are  situated  in  the  cities,  principally  in 
Reval.  Riga  and  Kovno.  Their  aggregate  seating 
capacity  is  about  10.000  people  daily.  Admission 
prices  range  from  $0.10  to  $0.40  per  seat.  Per- 
formances are  usually  in  the  evening  only,  and 
changes  of  program  are  scheduled  once  weekly. 
Distribution  and  Percentage  of  Films  Used 
Practically  all  films  shown  in  the  border  Sue 
cession  States  are  distributed  through  a  few  film 
distributors  established  in  Riga,  Reval  and  Kovno. 
who  obtain  films  from  distributing  centers  in 
Berlin  and  London,  and  also  from  New  York  di 
rect.  About  500.000  meters  of  films  are  imported 
yearly  from  all  three  territories,  the  average  pro 
gram  consisting  of  1,000  to  2.000  meters  of  films, 
with  an  average  of  250  to  500  meters  per  reel. 
During  1923,  German  produced  films  displayed  in 
these  countries  averaged  about  65  per  cent,  Amcri 
can  30  per  cent,  and  French  5  per  cent.  Indica- 
tions are  that  films  of  American  manufacture  will 
supply  nearly  50  per  cent  of  the  market  require

ments  during  1924,  owing  to  decreased  pro- 
duction in  Germany  and  irregularities  experienced 
in  handling  German  films,  as  well  as  the  growing 
demand  for  American  dramas  of  high  quality. 
Methods  of  Sale  and  Shipment — Prices 
Most  of  the  distributors  in  Berlin  and  London 
send  their  representatives  to  visit  the  Baltic  dis 
tricts  about  once  a  year  to  study  the  market 
capacity.  Local  distributors  also  make  periodic 
trips  to  Berlin  to  make  selections,  and  one  dis- 
tributor contemplates  direct  contact  with  a  num- 
ber of  American  firms  in  order  to  insure  better 
service  and  price.  The  films  are  usually  shipped 
in  the  usual  tin  containers.  Terms  are  generally 
on  a  cash  basis.  Theater  owners  in  the  cities 
usually  rent  films  from  the  distributors  at  $125  to 
$185  per  week  for  1,500  to  2,000  meters  of  films, 
including  advertising  service,  etc.  A  tax  of  20 
to  30  per  cent  of  gross  revenue  is  paid  by  the 
theater  owners  to  the  respective  Governments  as  a 
luxury  tax.  Apparently  that  is  little  difference 
between  the  average  price  of  rental  of  German  and 
American  films,  although  certain  special  feature 
films  of  American  manufacture  are  considered  some- 
what  too  expensive. 

High    Class    Films   in  Demand 

The  principal  motion  picture  theaters  in  the 
Baltic  Republic  cater  to  a  limited  trade,  confined, 
principally,  to  the  cities,  but  are  apparently  doing 
a  paying  business.  The  purchasing  power  of  the 
population  is  comparatively  low,  and  little  effort 
has  been  made  thus  far  to  educate  the  mass  of  the 
people  to  patronize  the  theaters.  However,  the 
demand  on  the  part  of  the  present  trade  is 
pecularily  persistent.  Films  produced  by  re- 
nowned artists  featuring  either  heavy  drama  or 
light-semi-serious  comedy  are  keenly  appreciated, 
and,  generally  speaking,  the  trade  consists  of  per- 
sons who  would  sacriV-  other  nl»Tsnres  rather 
than  forego  seeing  good  film  productions. 

Censorship  in  Latvia  of  motion  pictures  is  con- 
sidered quite  strict  Scenes  of  violent  murders 
or  of  immorality  are  forbidden  .  In  Esthonia  and 
Lithuania,  the  censorship  is  said  not  to  be  quite 
so  stringent.  Children  under  18  years  of  age  are 
not  allowed  in  the  theaters,  except  when  special 
children's  films  are  displayed.  Regulations  in  each 
country  provide  that  all  films  must  be  prominently 
in  the  native  language  of  the  country,  as  well  as 
in  Russian  and  German,  a  feature  which  is  taken 
care  of  by  the  local  distributors.  However,  in 
Lithuania  only  the  Lithuanian  and  Russian  langu- 
ages are  used  on  motion  pictures.  Owing  to  the 
fact  that  practically  all  films  used  in  these  coun- 
tries are  inter-changed,  considerable  inconvenience 
and  expense  is  incurred  from  the  necessity  of 
changing  inscriptions  to  suit  the  regulations  of 
the  importing  country. — Jan.  10,  1924. 

A  report  issued  March  28,  says :  There  are 
85  theaters  in  the  Baltic  Republics  of  Latvia. 
Esthonia  and  Lithuania,  according  to  figures  made 
public  by  the  Bureau  of  Commerce,  This  repre- 
sents  an    increase   since    1922   of    35  houses. 

During  1923,  German  made  films  displayed  in 
these  countries  averaged  about  65  per  cent,  Ameri- 
can 30  per  cent  ami  French  5  per  cent.  Indi- 
cations are  that  films  of  American  manufacture 
will  supply  nearly  50  per  cent  of  the  market 
requirements  during  1924  owing  to  irregularities 
in  handling  German  films  as  well  as  the  growing 
demand  for  American  dramas. 


CHINA 

By  Vice  Consul  M.  M.  Hamilton,  Canton 
Moving   pictures   are  growing  more   and  more 
popular  in  Canton.     Not  only  are  they  in  favor 
among   the   2,000    foreigners   residing  at  Canton, 
but    an    increasing    number    of    patrons    is  found 
among  the  native  population,   which   is  estimated 
at  well  over,  1,000.000.    Unsettled  conditions  have 
tended  to  retard  the  development  of  the  industry, 
but  there  is  no  doubt   that  it  is  expanding.  The 
Chinese  like  picture  shows  and  make  an  enthusi 
astic  ami  appreciative  audience. 
Present  Status  of  Industry — Admission  Charges 
Six  moving-picture  houses  operating  in  the  city 
of  Canton.    The  combined  seating  capacity  of  the 


theaters  is  4,200.  Shows  are  given  every  afternoon 
and  evening,  the  films  being  changed  twice  a  week. 
The  best  demand  seems  to  be  for  comic  pictures 
and  for  serial  shows  depicting  life  in  the  Ameri- 
can "Wild  West." 

There  are  four  classes  of  seats  in  most  of  the 
theaters.  The  charge  for  admission  ranges  from 
10  cents  to  50  cents.  These  rates  seem  rather 
high  in  view  of  the  low  purchasing  power  of  the 
average  Cantonese.  However,  the  theaters  are 
crowded  when  the  city  is  quiet. 
A  Sourje  of  Supply  and  Method  of  Importation. 

The  moving-picture  machines   used  in  the  Can 
ton   theaters  are  purchased  outright  from  dealers 
at  Hongkong  and  at  Shanghai.     Most  of  them  are 
second  hand  machines  and  are  of  American  origin. 
Private  arrangements  for  renting  films  from  Hong- 
kong and  Shanghai  are  made  by  the  theaters  them 
selves,  there  being  no  brokerage  agency  or  coin- 
mission  house  at  Canton  which  specializes  in  this 
industry.      The  theaters  operated  by  the  Sun  Co., 
and  by  the  Sincere  Co.,     two     large  department 
stores  at  Canton,  obtain  films  through  the  Hong 
kong  offices  of  their  respective  companies.  Prac- 
tically all  of  the  films  are  American. 

Use  of  Pictures  For  Advertising  Purposes 

The  idea  of  advertising  through  the  medium  ot 
moving  pictures  has  gained  a  foothold  among  the 
Cantonese.  Before  the  showings  and  between  films 
and  during  intermissions  screens  of  advertising 
matter  are  flashed  before  the  audience.  This  seems 
to  be  an  effective  means  of  familiarizing  the  popu- 
lace with  a  particular  brand,  or  shop.  The  printed 
matter  is  given  in  both  English  and  Chinese. 
Whenever  possible,  it  is  best  to  have  an  actual 
likeness  of  the  particular  commodity  shown  on  the 
screen. 

Prospects  for  Expansion 
The  moving-picture  industry  is  in  its  infancy  at 
present.  Under  normal  conditions  a  fairly  rapid 
development  may  be  expected.  However,  much 
expansion  may  be  retarded  by  unfavorable  cir- 
cumstances, the  moving  picture  would  appear  to 
have  come  to  stay.  The  Chinese  is  fond  of  this 
form  of  amusement,  and  now  that  he  has  become 
accustomed  to  it,  indications  point  to  an  expan- 
sion of  the  industry.  Potential  possibilities  are 
great  and  American  concerns  are  advised  to  keep 
in  touch  with  the  situation,  even  though  present 
business  is  small. — July  21,  1924. 

Shanghai  has  Municipal  Movies 
By  .Assistant   Trade   Commissioner  J.   H.  Nelson. 

Shanghai 

The  Shanghai  Municipal  Council  has  recently 
adopted  the  movies  as  a  means  of  furthering  pub- 
lic health  educational  work.  Most  of  the  films 
are  relatively  short  and  can  be  shown  in  about 
five  minutes.  The  following  subjects  were  dealt 
with  during  last  year;  Natural  Ice.  Mosquito  Ex- 
termination. The  Water  Melon,  and  a  second  film 
on  Vaccination  was  prepared.  These  films  were 
shown  at  local  theaters  and  at  the  halls  of  the 
Navy  and  Chinese  V.  M,  C.  A.  The  need  of  a 
suitable  public  health  lecture  hall  was  urgently 
felt  during  the  year,  and  this  will  now  shortly  be 
built  in  Hankow  Road.  It  will  help  200  people, 
and  will  be  a  useful  center  for  educational  lectures 
and  cinematographic  demonstrations  in  public 
health  and  personal  hygiene. — April  1,  1924. 
Motion-Picture  Production  in   North  China 

There  are  five  organizations  in  north  and  central 
China  w  hich  are  interested  in  the  production  of  mo- 
tion pictures;  two  are  American;  the  other  three 
are  the  Commercial  Press  (Ltd.),  a  Chinese  con- 
cern, the  British-American  Tobacco  Co.,  and  the 
Film-Ad  Co.  both  British.  All  of  them  specialize 
in  screen  news  weeklies,  animated  cartoons  and 
educational  films.  Tn  fact,  the  Commercial  Press 
(Ltd.)  is  the  only  one  of  the  five  producers  which 
has  made  dramatic  pictures  to  date,  and  even  this 
company  is  now  turning  to  educational  films  and 
scenics.  A  total  of  four  professional  camera  men 
arc  permanently  attached  to  there  organizations, 
and  each  has  a  more  or  less  complete  developing 
ami  printing  laboratory.  Motion-picture  supplies] 
including  films,  are  at  present  purchased  almost 
entirely  from  the  United  States,  with  the  major 
exception  of  cameras  and  apparatus,  which  have 
been  imported  directly  from  France.    The  market.

DENMARK 

Commercial  Attache  C.  F.  Herring,  Berlin, 
reports  that  business  men  in  north  European 
countries,  chiefly  in  Scandinavia,  announced 
through  the  medium  of  the  Berlin  "Boersen 
Zeitung"  that  they  contemplate  forming  a  huge 
film  corporation  to  take  over  large  motion  pic- 
ture theaters,  in  the  Scandinavian  and  other  lands 
of  north  Europe.  The  new  corporation  proposes 
to  maintain  a  chain  of  theaters  in  several  of  these 
countries,  in  some  cases  act  as  distributor  for 
outside  concerns. 

Their  home  office  and  central  operating  organi- 
zation, staff  and  studios  are  being  established  in 
Copenhagen. 


GERMANY 


By  Vice  Consul  William  E.  Lane,  Cologne. 

Endeavors  are  being  made  to  gain  for  Cologne 
as  a  film-manufacturing  center  for  western  Ger- 
many the  same  importance  as  Berlin  and  Munich 
enjoy  in  the  motion-picture  industry.  There  have 
already  been  founded  in  the  Rhenish  metropolis 
of  Cologne  several  companies  which  are  partly 
affiliated  with  the  Berlin  film  industry.  It  is  hoped 
by  these  companies  that  the  prominent  artists 
and  architects  of  western  Germany  will  be  in- 
duced to  devote  themselves  to  the  motion-picture 
production  which  is  about  to  be  undertaken. 

To  promote  the  further  development  of  the  film 
industry  in  the  occupied  territory,  first-class  film 
printing  works  are  planned  by  which  the  western 
German  film  industry  will  be  made  more  inde 
pendent. 

New  Strength  Would  Be  Given  to  Film  Industry 

The  building  up  of  the  western  German  film 
center  at  Cologne  will  give  new  life  and  new 
ideas  to  the  German  film,  as  has  been  exempli 
fied  by  the  growing  film  industry  at  Munich.  The 
first  step  has  been  taken  toward  further  develop- 
ment of  the  film  industry  in  western  Germany 
by  the  centralization  of  the  film-renting  system 
for  western  Germany  at  Cologne  and  Duessel 
dorf  and  the  new  branches  for  reprsentative  Gef^ 
man  film  enterprises.  The  Gevaert  Raw-Film 
Factory  of  Belgium  origin,  which  is  well  known 
for  its  first-class  manufacturers,  has  likewise 
established  its  agency  at  Cologne,  thereby  abolish 
ing  a  monopoly  which  existed  heretofore  between 
German  firms  in  the  raw-film  industry. 

Cologne  has  developed  into  a  very  important 
trade  and  industrial  center,  and  because  of  its  very 
good  international  traffic  center,  it  is  an  outlet 
for  the  exportation  of  films.  Great  hopes  are  en 
tertained  by  the  companies  that  the  development 
of  the  western  German  film  industry  will  progress 
rapidly. 

The  great  number  of  moving-picture  theaters  in 
Cologne  are  filled  to  overflowing  at  each  per- 
formance, in  spite  of  high  admission  fees,  ranging 
from  1  to  3  gold  marks.  Great  interest  has  been 
shown  in  American  films,  regardless  of  the  heavy 
German  internal  tax  and  the  import  duties  imposed 


by  the  French  occupational  authorities  on  films 
imported  into  the  occupied  territory. — April  17, 
1924. 

April  28,  he  reported:  Endeavors  are  being  made 
to  gain  for  Cologne  as  a  film-manufacturing  cen- 
ter for  western  Germany  the  same  importance  as 
Berlin  and  Munich  enjoy  in  the  motion-picture 
industry. 


Corporation  to  Be  Established 

Commercial  Aattache  C.  E.  Herring,  of  Berlin, 
reported  : 

A  large  film  corporation,  with  a  capital  of 
£  200,000.  is  to  be  established  to  take  over  mov- 
ing picture  theaters  in  Northern  Europe,  parti 
cularly  in  Scandinavia  .according  to  the  Boersen- 
zeitung.  The  company  proposes  to  maintain  a 
chain  of  theaters  in  several  countries  and  to 
produce  films  on  its  own  account.  The  central 
organiation  is  established  in  Copenhagen.  It  is 
understood  that  the  Stinnes  family  are  interested 
in  the  venture. — October  6. 


By  Consul  Rudolf  E.  Schoenfeld,  Berlin. 

Motion  pictures  in  Germany  are  enjoying  runs 
of  many  weeks  and  the  larger  ones  are  being  run 
through  successive  months.  Lack  of  good  films 
and  not  their  appeal  to  the  fans  is  given  as  the 
reason  for  the  long  runs.  Germany  s  production 
of  films  has  been  waning  steadily  since  1921.  in 
1922  the  total  output  was  1.221.280  meters  or 
roundly  35  per  cent  of  the  1921  production  B 
1923,  the  production  had  dwindled  to  but  //i,/Bi 
meters. 

The  large  producers  suffered  the  greates  loss 
in  the  outnut  during  1923  owing  to  the  consistent 
effort  to  produce  films  of  high  quality  with  in- 
sufficient funds.  The  medium  size  producer,  firms 
with  an  annul  outout  of  5.000  to  10,000  meters 
were  more  successful  in  maintaining  production. 
In  contrast  with  both  large  and  medium  size 
producers,  the  small  producers  increased  their 
output  Owing  to  import  restrictions,  the  market 
at  the  present  time  holds  no  allurement  for  Am- 
erican producers.  It  is  believed,  however,  that 
the  popularity  of  American  films  in  Germany  will 
react  to  our  favor  with  the  improvement  of  econ- 
omic conditions. 


The    Dawes    Plan    and  Pictures 

Washington— Discussing  the  effect  of  the  Dawes 
nlan  on  Germany  in  September,  Warren  L.  Hoag- 
land  Chief  of  the  Specialties  Division  of  the 
Department  of  Commerce,  declares  that  production 
now  is  declining  steadily. 

He  blames  this  on  the  internal  condition  of  the 
Reich  and,  in  part,  declares: 

"In  1922  the  total  output  was  1,221,280  meters, 
or  roundly,  thirty-five  per  cent  of  the  1921  output: 
in  1923  the  situation  had  become  even  worse, 
production  dwindling  to  but  775,783  meters.  The 
early  part  of  the  current  year  showed  symptoms 
of  revival  in  production,  but  the  tendency  toward 
improvement  was  quickly  checked  by  the  general 
business  depression  that  has  since  become  ap- 
parent throughout  Germany. 

"The  large  producers  suffered  the  greatest  loss 
in  output  during  1923.  This  was  partly  due  to 
a  consistent  effort  to  produce  films  of  high  quality, 
but  lack  of  funds  was  the  main  factor  in  keep 
ing  down  production  The  output  of  the  film 
producers  of  this  class,  which  includes  firms  with 
a  production  in  excess  of  10, OCA  meters  annually, 
totaled  but  157,991  meters  in  1923,  as  against 
529,769  meters  in  1922,  a  loss  of  371,788  meters, 
or  seventy  per  cent. 

"The  medium  sized  producers,  which  means  the 
firms  with  an  output  between  5,000  and  10,000 
meters  annually,  were  more  successful  in  mantain- 
ing  production.  Film  produced  by  such  concerns 
amounted  to  207,669  meters  in  1922  and  to  180. 
589  meters  in  1923 — hence  a  decline  in  1923  of 
seven  per  cent."

GREECE 

By  Consul  W.  L.  Lowrie,  Athens 
There  are  about  twelve  motion-picture  theaters 
in  Athens,  eight  of  which  give  high-class  perform- 
ances, and  the  other  four  specialize  in  popular 
serial  films.  The  capacity  of  these  theaters  is 
anywhere  from  650  to  900  seats.  American  mo- 
tion pictures  predominate,  but  there  is  also  a  con 
siderable  showing  of  Italian,  French,  and  German 
pictures.  Films  are  bought  either  outright  by- 
importers  or  rented  at  a  lump  sum  varying  with 
the  size  and  the  subject  of  the  film.  .  Most  of 
them  are  secured  through  Constantinople,  Smyra, 
or  Alexandria,  the  importers  reserving  for  them 
selves  exlusive  rights  not  only  for  Greece  but  for 
all  the  Balkan  States.  It  should  be  noted  that  the 
season  during  which  pictures  are  shown  is  ordy 
from  October  to  May,  there  being  not  enough 
demand  during  the  summer  months  to  warrant 
the  showing  of  pictures. — Jan.  28,  1924. 


GUATEMALA 

By  Consul  Augustus  Ostertag,  Guatemala  City 
A  new  moving  picture  theater  named  the"Tea- 
tro  Real"  is  being  erected  in  Guatemala  City.  The 
materials  used  for  the  construction  work  are  all 
of  domestic  origin.  The  cost  of  remodeling  will 
he  approximately  $17,000  to  $20,000,  and  an  ad- 
ditional $10,000  will  be  spent  for  chairs  and 
furnishings.  This  theater  will  have  a  capacity 
of  1,750  first-class  and  800  gallery  seat.— July  28, 
1924.     Reference  No.  136772. 

ICELAND

Washington  that  the  new  Icelandic  law  prohibits 
the  importation  of  motion  pictures  for  a  period 
of  two  years. 


INDIA 

The  Bengal  Association  has  found  the  exhibition 
of  motion  pictures  concerned  with  the  cultivation 
of  cotton  and  other  basic  products  so  successful 
that  it  is  planning  a  complete  program  for  ex- 
hibiting motion  pictures  giving  details  of  manu- 
facturing processes.  This  decision  was  the  result 
of  a  persistent  demand  for  rendering  as  much  as- 
sistance as  possible  to  young  engineers  in  India 
who  have  not  had  opportunities  to  observe  foreign 
manufacturing  methods. — Feb.  25,  1924.

ITALY 

By  the  American  Clerk,  American  Consulate, 
Messina 

The  City  of  Messina,  with  a  population  of 
177.000.  at  present  possesses  six  moving  picture 
theaters,  as  follows: 

Cinema  Trinacria.  with  a  seating  capacity  of  1,000 
Cinema  Parisien,  with  a  seating  capacity  of..  500 
Cinema  Centrale,  with  a  seating  capacity  of..  500 
Cinema  Giostra,  with  a  seating  capacity  of. .  300 
Cinema  Piemonte,  with  a  seating  capacity  of.  .  260 

2,960 

The  price  of  seats  in  most  of  the  cinemas  is  as 
follows:  Balcony  seats  (considered  the  best)  lire 
4.05,  ($0.18)  ;  Orchestra  seats,  in  rear  of  the 
house,  lire  2.60  ($0.12);  orchestra  seates,  near 
screen,  lire  1.30  ($0.06);  the  dollar  exchanges  to- 
day for  lire  22.50) 


A  government  luxury  tax  of  30%  on  theater 
tickets  is  included  in  the  above  mentioned  prices. 

Films  are  changed,  generally,  three  times  a 
week,  but  feature  films  of  unusual  interest  may 
be  shown  for  an  entire  week.  The  moving  pic- 
ture theaters  in  Messina  are  open  continuously 
from  2  P.  M.  and  11  P.  M.  and  the  number  of 
shows  during  that  period  varies  from  four  to  six 
according  to  the  length  of  the  film  shown.  Gen- 
erally a  show  consists  of  only  one  long  film  of 
from  1,500  to  2.000  meters  in  length  and  short 
films  are  seldom  shown. 

Types  of  Films  Preferred 

Films  of  love  and  romance,  broad  farces  and 
historical  films  are  most  in  demand.  Films  of 
adventure,  depicting  life  among  the  cowboys 
in  the  Wild  West,  as  interpreted  by  American 
moving  picture  actors  are  quite  popular,  but 
American  dramas  are  not  well  understood  or  re- 
ceived. Films  manufactured  in  Italy  are  natur- 
ally preferred  to  foreign  films,  but  there  is  a  small 
steady  demand  for  Amreican  films. 

The  proportion  of  films  of  various  origin  ex- 
hibited in  Messina  may  be  seen  from  the  fol- 
lowing table : 

Italian  films   50% 

German  films    20% 

American  films   25% 

French  films    5% 

Italian  Motion  Pictures 

There  are  three  kinds  of  projecting  machines 
in  use  here,  one  manufactured  by  the  Ernomann 
Company  of  Dresden.  Germany,  one  by  the  Pathe

As  a  general  rule,  films  are  projected  on  to  a 
whitewashed  cement  wall,  and  only  occasiona'ly 
is  a  white  cotton  screen  used.  Dimensions  of  the 
screen  are  12  x  18  feet. 

Trade  Methods 

Films  are  seldom  purchased  outright  but  are 
rented,  generally  from  distributing  agencies  in 
Rome,  Naples  and  Palermo.  The  rentals  range 
from  400  to  600  lire  ($17.77  to  $26.66),  a  film, 
for  a  period  of  two  or  three  days.  Occasionally, 
some  of  the  very  best  Italian  films  are  shown  and 
for  these  1,000  to  2,000  lires  ($44.44  and  $88.89) 
may  be  asked  for  the  period  stated.  Such  a  high 
price,  however,  is  the  result  of  competition  be- 
tween motion  picture  houses  in  Messina.  Con- 
tracts are  usually  made  for  a  stipulated  number  of 
films  per  annum  and  payment  is  made  at  the  end 
of  each  month. 

American  film  companies  should  approach  this 
market  through  film  distributors  in  Rome.  Naples 
and  Palermo,  but  they  may  also  communicate  di- 
rectly with  the  cinemas  named  above  which  may 
undertake  the  distribution  of  films  in  this  region 
after  a  showing  in  Messina. 

Since  cheapness  is  a  desirable  factor  here,  it 
may  he  possible  to  dispose  of  second-hand  films 
in  good  condition. 

Film  titles  must  always  be  in  Italian  as  well  as 
all  advertising  literature  accompanying  films 
Ample  lithographic  posters  of  good  color  effect 
and  clear  photographs  for  billboard  display  should 
be  furnished. 

United  States  Shipping  Board  vessels  frequently 
touch  at  Messina  from  the  United  States. 

Custom  Duties  on   Moving   Picture  Films 

Not  exposed  and  not  sensitized,  lire  330  a  quin 
tal  (100  kilos).  ($49.08). 

Not  exposed  but  sensitized,  lire  660  a  quintal 
I  100  kilos),  ($98.16). 

Exposed,  lire  22  for  every  100  meters,  $3.27. 

These  duties  are  collected  in  gold  lire.  At 
today's  rate  100  gold  lire  equal  335  paper  lire. —

Palermo 

By  Consul  Edward  I.  Nathan,  Palermo,  Italy 
The  city  of  Palermo,  Sicily,  with  a  population 
of  about  450.000,  has  only  14  motion  picture 
houses,  of  which  three  of  the  more  important 
ones  were  opened  during  the  past  year.  As  they 
are  all  well  patronized,  their  success  will  doubt 
less  induce  others  to  be  opened.  There  are  also 
a  number  of  motion  picture  houses  in  the  various 
towns  in  the  interior  of  the  district.

Until  recently,  most  of  the  films  shown  were 
of  Italian  and  French  production,  but  recently 
a  number  of  American  films  have  been  shown, 
which  have  met  with  popular  approval.  One 
American  producer  has  already  arranged  for  films 
to  be  shown  regularly  at  a  local  house,  but  there 
would  seem  to  be  a  possibility  for  more  firms 
doing  likewise.  However,  it  would  would  be  pre- 
ferable to  have  a  special  agent  in  some  city  of 
continental  Italy  who  would  be  given  the  whole 
of  Italy  in  which  to  develop  business  and  he 
could  circularize  the  films  among  local  motion 
picture  houses. — June  16,  1924 

Imports  and  Exports 
By   Trade    Commissioner   A    A.    Osborne,  Rome 

In  1923,  Italy  imported  2.259,215  meters  of 
motion  picture  films,  or  $265,084  meters  if  194,- 
131  meters  of  Italian  film  returned  after  exporta- 
tion is  left  out,  compared  with  1,285,142  meters 
imported  in  1922.  From  third  place  in  1922. 
coming  after  France  and  Germany,  the  United 
States  took  first  place  in  1923,  when  it  contributed 
697,643  meters  or  more  than  30  per  cent  of  total 
imports  for  the  year.  The  value  of  imported  films 
in  1923  totaled  13,215,049  lire  compared  with 
3,825,167  lire  in  1922. 

Export   of  Films 

Exports  of  films  amounted  to  1,909,256  meters 
valued  at  7,040,800  lire  in  1923,  compared  with 
1,612,377  meters  having  the  value  of  7,458,547 
lire  in  1922. 

Although  the  United  States,  France,  Germany 
and  Great  Britain  furnished  most  of  the  films 
imported  into  Italy  in  1923,  a  number  of  other 
countries  contributed  appreciable  quantities.  The 
chief  countries  of  destination  for  exported  films 
were  Austria,  France,  Germany  and  Russia.  The 
last  named  country  took  188,589  meters  of  Italian 
film  in  1923  and  ranked  in  importance  next  to 
Germany  and  France.  The  United  States  im- 
ported 120,965  linear  meters  in  1923  as  compared 
with  231,739  linear  meters  in  1922.— June  16,  1924. 


Naples 

By  Consul  General  H.  M.  Byington,  Naples. 

For  purposes  of  film  distribution,  Italy  is 
divided  into  five  sections.  Piedmont  and  Liguria 
form  one  dist ;  Lombardy  and  Venice  another; 
Tuscany  and  Emilia  a  third ;  Lazio,  the  district 
around  Rome,  is  the  fourth,  and  the  Naples  dis- 
trict covers  the  largest  territory,  but  is  not  the 
most  populous.  Naples,  Palermo,  Messina,  Bary, 
Monopoli,  Lecce,  Taranto  and  Brindisi  are  the 
only  considerable  cities.  Naples  is  by  far  the 
largest,  with  a  population  of  about  1,000,000, 
and  has  28  large  moving-picture  theaters  and  a 
number  of  smaller  ones. 

Naples  film  distributors  are  not  in  the  habit 
of  buying  direct  from  the  producer.  Their  method 
is  to  have  their  agents  visit  other  cities  in  Italy, 
France,  Germany  and  England  and  view  films 
that  are  being  exhibited.  On  the  basis  of  the 
reports    of   these   "scouts"   rentals   are  made. 

A  list  of  the  distributing  agencies  in  Italy  can 
be  secured  by  addressing  the  Department  of 
Commerce. 


JAPAN

Japan 

There  are  said  to  be  40  more  motion-picture 
houses  in  Tokyo  than  there  were  before  the  earth- 
quake, while  applications  have  been  received  for 
the  construction  of  26  additional  establishments. — 
Oct.  20,  1924. 

Specialty  Briefs 

By  Assistant  Commercial  Attache  E.  G.  Rabbitt, 
Tokyo 

With  a  view  to  establishing  a  confederation  of 
motion  pictures  film  producers  in  Japan,  the 
Japan  Moving  Picture  Producing  Co.,  and  the 
Shochiku  Cinema  Co.,  according  to  the  Osaka 
Mainichi,  are  preparing  to  join  forces  and  will 
invite  the  cooperation  of  the  Teikoku  Cinema  Co., 
and  the  Makino  Moving  Picture  Producing  Co.. 
The  main  objects  of  the  confederation  are  to 
obtain  standardization  of  censorship,  to  secure 
withdrawal  of  tax  on  lead  cases  of  imported 
films  and  amusement   tax  imposed  on  theater  pa- 


trons, to  improve  the  technique  of  production 
and  selection  of  plots,  and  to  study  the  possibility 
of  increasing  exports  of  their  films,  especially  to 
China.  The  only  films  now  exported  from  Japan 
are  those  covering  new  items. — April  7,  1924. 


MEXICO 

A  consular  report  issued  in  April  says  there 
are  460  picture  houses  scattered  throughout  the 
Republic  of  Mexico  with  43  in  Mexico  City. 
Most  give  nightly  performances  with  the  pictures 
running  for  a  week.  In  the  larger  cities,  states 
the  report,  a  run  of  21  days  can  be  realized 
through  the  medium  of  second  and  third  run 
houses. 

The  entire  picture  trade  is  supplied  through 
Mexico  City  with  it  estimated  that  in  excess  of 
400  films  are  imported  annually  from  the  United 
States.  97  per  cent  of  the  films  shown  in  Mexico 
are  produced  in  the  United  States. 

Some  producing  is  done  in  Mexico  by  the 
Mexicans  themselves,  but  they  have  only  met  with 
indifferent  success,  possibly,  states  the  Consul, 
due  to  the  employment  of  local  talent.  One 
film,  "Almas  Tropicales,"  is  now  being  shown 
throughout  Mexico,  this  film  having  been  pro- 
duced by  the  firm  of  G.  Camuay  Cia. 

"In  a  broad  general  way,  there  is  a  preference 
for  the  American  films,  but  this  is  due  almost 
entirely  to  the  fact  that  the  public  has  been 
educated  to  accept  the  American  standard ;  which 
may  he  traced  back  to  the  fact  that  good  sales- 
manship and  the  maintenance  of  local  agencies 
here  by  the  American  film  producers  have  prin 
cipally  contributed  to  such  education. 

The  fact  that  the  Mexican  government  forced 
American  film  producers  to  agree  to  eliminate 
the  use  of  Mexican  characters  as  the  bad  man 
of  their  drama  has  been  taken  to  indicate  a 
critical  attitude  on  the  part  of  the  Mexican  public, 
but,  as  a  matter  of  fact,  the  action  referred  to 
was  initiated  entirely  by  the  government  and 
was  not  in  response  to  any  popular  demand 
whatever. 

Consequently,  the  American  film  distributor 
will  find  that  the  popularity  of  screen  stars  and 
public  tastes  here  in  Mexico  correspond  to  such 
popularity  in   the  United  States. 


NORWAY 

"Norway  has  been  a  pioneer  country  in  regard 
to  municipal  moving  picture  theaters,"  reports 
a  Consul.  "In  1920,  120  municipal  cinemato 
graphs  had  an  income  from  performances  of 
19,000,000  Kroner,  while  the  gross  receipt  of  94 
private  cinematographs  was  about  3,000,000 
Kroner.  The  population  of  Norway  is  about 
2.700.000.  Considerable  sums  are  devoted  yearly, 
particularly  to  cultural  objects,  from  the  revenues 
of  municipal  cinematographs.  The  action  of  the 
Government  in  1920  regarding  the  latter  is  liable 
to  taxation  has,  therefore,  aroused  great  ill-will 
in  the  municipalalities.  The  moving  picture  the- 
aters are  generally  housed  in  separate  buildings 
which  in  the  cities  are  frequently  spacious  and 
beautifully  decorated  in  the  interior.  Even  to  the 
remote  country  districts,  the  moving  pictures  have 
found  their  way  and  they  are  highly  appreciated 
by  the  public  as  a  means  of  entertainment  and 
a  highly  important  factor  of  education.  Edu- 
cational films  are  used  in  all  of  the  schools." 


PORTO  RICO 

By  L.   W.  James,  Special  Agent  San  Juan. 

American  motion  pictures  dominate  the  Porto 
Rican  market,  few  of  those  of  any  other  nation 
being  shown.  They  are  distributed  all  through 
eight  exchanges  operated  in  San  Juan,  all  but 
one  of  them  being  local  companies.  Rentals  are 
approximately  from  $5  to  $10  for  the  average 
old  picture,  and  it  is  the  custom  for  the  ex- 
changes to  do  the  advertising.  There  are,  all  toM, 
in  the  neighborhood  of  125  theaters  and  other 
buildings  where  motion  pictures  are  shown  in  the 
island.  With  the  exception  of  a  few  in  San 
Juan  and  Ponce  none  of  them  has  daily  shows ; 
the  majority  open  Saturday  and  Sunday,  with 
possibly  one  or  two  evenings  during  the  week. — ■

RUSSIA 

By  Assistant  Trade  Commissioner  Albert  Baldwin, 
Warsaw 

Motion  pictures  for  Russia  are  at  present  se- 
cured from  Berlin,  where  Russian  purchases  are 
made  under  the  direction  of  the  official  Govern- 
ment trade  monopoly  "Vniehtorg,"  Russische 
Hanclelsvertrehtung,  Lindenstrasse,  68  Berlin 
This  institution  also  censors  all  films  destined  foi 
Russia. — January    28,  1924. 


SI  AM 

By  Vice  Consul  Carl  C.  Hansen,  Bangkok 
Singapore  is  the  main  distributing  center  of 
motion  picture  films  for  Siam,  according  to  cus 
tom's  entries  at  the  port  of  Bangkok.  Out  of 
a  total  import  from  foreign  countries  of  8,444 
kilos  of  films,  valued  at  281,050  ticals  (1  Heal 
equals  about  $0.37)  in  the  fiscal  year  ended  March 
21,  1923,  Singapore  is  credited  with  6,652  kilos, 
valued  at  253,334  ticals;  the  United  States  with 
872  kilos,  valued  at  18,226  ticals;  and  all  other 
countries  with  920  kilos,  valued  at  9,490  ticals. 
During  the  same  period,  the  films  re-exported  from 
Bangkok  to  Singapore,  amounting  to  292,165  ti- 
cals, exceeded  the  total  imports  from  all  countries 
by  11,115  ticals. 

The  motion  picture  business  in  Siam  is  practi- 
cally monopolized  by  one  firm  which  operates  nine 
theaters  in  Bangkok  and  several  smaller  theaters 
in  the  Provinces.  This  firm  imports  on  its  own 
account. 

No  American  Motion  Picture  Agents  in  Siam 

There  are  no  American  producers  or  distribu- 
tors of  motion  pictures  in  Siam,  but  several  repre- 
sentatives of  American  manufacturers  of  films  have, 
from  time  to  time,  visited  the  Kingdom  and  have 
taken  pictures  and  shown  them  at  the  local  the 
aters.  Motion  picture  theaters  in  Bangkok  have 
a  weekly  attendance  of  about  50,000  anil  the  total 
seating  capacity  is  about  15,000.  The  1922-23 
census  figures  for  Bangkok  were  given  as  745,640. 


American  Films  Popular 

American  photoplays  of  nearly  every  descrip- 
tion are  appreciated  and  always  draw  full  houses, 
although  certain  American  screen  stars  are  pre- 
ferred.—April  28,  1924. 


SINGAPORE 

Imports  of  American  films  to  Singapore  for 
the  fiscal  year  ending  March,  1923  amounted  to 
18,226  ticals  or  $6,743.62,  according  to  reports 
of  the  Bureau  of  Foreign  and  Domestic  Com- 
merce in  May.  Imports  from  all  other  countries 
for  the  same  period  amounted  to  9,490  ticals  or 
$3,511.30.  Total  imports  for  the  Kingdom  of  Siam 
were  281.050  ticals,  or  $103,988.50.  The  business 
is  practically  monopolized  by  one  firm  which 
operates  nine  theaters. 


SPAIN 

By  Consul  Fred  C.  Slater,  Corunna 
Corunna,  with  a  population  of  75,000,  has  four 
picture  houses  varying  in  capacity  from  250  to 
1,500  people,  giving  two  entertainments  daily  in 
summer  and  three  in  winter,  with  one  added  on 
Sundays.  As  a  rule  they  are  well  patronized. 
Prices  lange  from  0.25  peseta  to  1J^  pesetas 
(the  peseta  is  now  worth  $0.13).  The  films  come 
from  Barcelona,  which  seems  to  be  the  distribut- 
ing center  from  that  country  for  Spain.  All  man 
agers  say  they  show  only  first  grade  films ;  but 
as  Corunna  is  the  most  remote  from  Barcelona, 
many  of  them  have  seen  more  or  less  service  be- 
fore reaching  the  city.  After  they  have  been 
screened  for  a  time  they  are  passed  on  to  the 
smaller  surrounding  towns. 

American  pictures  have  recently  declined  in 
favor.  Up  to  about  two  years  ago,  75  per  cent 
of  the  pictures  shown  were  American,  while  now 
they  have  dropped  to  30  per  cent.  The  pictures 
that  take  best  are  those  of  an  historic  and  roman 
tic  character. — July  21,  1924.

Opinions  on  the  Foreign  Outlook 


A  WORLD  RESUME 

I  believe  that  it  is  generally  the  consensus  of 
opinion  among  those  engaged  in  the  distribu 
Hon  in  foreign  countries  of  American  motion 
pictures,  that  the  outlook  for  the  coming  year 
generally  speaks  for  the  American  producer  of 
first  class  attractions,  increased  husiness.  I  say 
"for  the  American  producer  of  first-class  at- 
tractions" because  Europe  is  becoming  more  criti- 
cal in  the  matter  of  the  production  that  it  is 
going  to  accept,  and  it  is  not  going  to  readily 
accept,  as  it  has  done  to  quite  an  extent  in  the 
past,  as  many  of  the  inferior  productions,  regard 
less  from  what  source  coming.  This  is  due  in 
a  large  measure  to  the  campaign  of  education  that 
has  been  carried  on  by  the  producers  of  worth- 
while productions  to  educate  the  exhibitor  to 
become  more  critical  for  the  purpose  of  increasing 
the  business  in  the  industry  as  a  whole. 

When  it  is  also  realized  that  Europe  has  just 
commenced  during  the  past  year  to  rehabilitate 
itself,  it  isn't'  hard  to  prophesy  that  the  motion 
picture  industry  there  has  of  necessity  been  travel- 
ling on  a  lower  plane  than  it  would  experience 
with  rehabilitated  commercial  conditions. 

Taking  the  foreign  countries  categorically — 
Scandinavia,  which  consists  of  Norway,  Sweden 
and   Denmark,   will   slightly  increase. 

Norway  will  probably  remain  at  a  standstill 
due  to  the  existence  of  communistically-owned 
theaters,  which  precludes  investment  of  private 
capital  in  theater  operations  while  there  is  no 
disposition  on  the  part  of  the  government  to 
itself  build  theaters. 

T  look  for  no  theater  activity  of  anv  conse 
quence  in  Sweden,  as  Sweden  is  quite  well  pro 
vided  with  first-class  theaters.  However,  a  re- 
habilitated Europe  should  have  its  reaction  upon 
commercial  conditions  in  Sweden  for  the  better- 
ment of  the  motion  picture  business.  This  will 
also  operate  in  the  following  manner.  It  will 
be  noted  that  the  Swedish  rate  of  exchange  has 
been  practically  normal  throughout  all  the  trouble- 
some period  of  Europe,  while  the  rest  of  Europe 
has  had  a  depreciated  currency.  The  fact  that 
the  Swedish  rate  of  exchange  has  been  normal 
while  that  of  Europe  has  been  depreciated  has 
very  materially  retarded  Swedish  exports  and  to 
that  extent  lowered  commercial  conditions.  As 
Europe  rehabilitates  itself  and  its  currency  mounts, 
it  is  bound  to  react  to  the  advantage  of  Sweden. 

Denmark  will  show  no  decided  improvement  but 
should  show  no  retrogression.  There  will  be 
very  little  theater  building  in  Denmark  but  im- 
proved general  commercial  conditions  should  have 
their  effect  upon  the  motion  picture  industrv 
there. 

The  United  Kingdom  of  Great  Britain,  Ireland 
and  Scotland  should  improve  considerably.  There 
is  quite  a  bit  of  activity  there  on  the  part  of 
the  exhibitors,  not  so  much  in  building  new 
theaters  as  renovating  and  enlarging  the  present 
ones,  which  indicates  the  optimistic  feeling  on  the 
part  of  the  British  exhibitor  toward  better  con- 
ditions. In  addition,  economic  conditions  in  the 
United  Kingdom  have  been  slowly  improving — 
slowly,  it  is  true,  but  improving. 

No  decided  improvement  can  be  looked  forward 
to  in  Spain,  Italy  and  Portugal  for  the  reason 
that  those  in  the  business  in  those  particular 
countries  have  not  yet  awakened  to  the  advantages 
to  be  reaped  from  enlightened  progressive  policies 
of  operation.  The  caliber  of  the  theaters  is  poor, 
the  method  of  operation  is  poor.  In  addition] 
the  customs  of  the  country,  and  that  goes  for 
all  the  Latin  countries,  are  not  as  propitious  to 
the  motion  picture  business  as  are  the  Nordic. 
Germanic  and  Anglo-Saxon  countries.  The  fact 
that  in  countries  like  Spain  it  isn't  considered 
proper  for  respectable  women  and  girls  to  be 
seen  upon  the  street  unchaperoned  precludes  their 
attendance  in  many  cases  from  theaters,  especial')' 
matinee  performances.  The  habits  of  the  people, 
that   matinees   should    start   at    six    o'clock  and 


regular  evening  performances  at  10:30  with  respect 
to  legitimate  theaters,  variety  and  vaudeville  per- 
formances, has  ingrained  habits  and  customs  upon 
the  people  that  are  not  conducive  to  the  motion 
picture  business  and  will  not  be  so  until  some 
radical  change  is  made. 

Germany  is  apt  to  be  the  spot  of  Europe  where, 
throughout  the  coming  year,  we  are  apt  to  find 
the  greatest  advancement  in  the  motion  picture 
business.  Germany  is  on  the  verge  of  coming 
back — and  coming  back  strongly,  and  the  habits 
and  temperaments  of  the  German  people  are  more 
favorable  to  the  motion  picture  business  than  are 
the  Latin  races.  In  addition,  Germany  is  in- 
tensely an  industrial  and  economic  nation,  and 
once  the  wheels  of  industry  commence  to  grind 
in  Germany  and  commercial  conditions  get  on  the 
rise,  the  motion  picture  business  there  is  going 
to  have  its  share  of  it.  However,  there  are  cer- 
tain hindrances  and  limitations  that  will  retard  this 
advancement  unless  removed.  One  is  the  re- 
striction upon  building  of  theaters,  which  re- 
quires that  if  a  certain  amount  of  capital  is  in- 
vested in  a  theater  a  like  or  proportionate  amount 
must  be  invested  in  dwelling  houses,  and  the 
other  is  the  present  pernicious  Kontingent  system 
which  there  prevails.  The  Kontingent  system  is 
a  system  whereby  the  number  of  imports  of  mo- 
tion pictures  are  limited  to  a  certain  percentage 
of  German  produced  productions.  These  permits, 
which  are  called  "kontingents,"  are  the  authority 
for  the  importation  of  a  subject  and  are  handed 
out  regardless  of  the  need  for  importation  of  the 
recipient.  Consequently  they  are  speculated  in 
to  a  great  extent  and  the  distributor  desirous  of 
importing  productions  and  one  who  has  need  for 
them  must  buy  from  the  competitive  market,  which 
means  that  a  considerable  flow  of  money  passes 
into  the  hands  of  non-essential  factors  in  the  busi- 
ness. 

Russia,  for  some  time,  has  shown  activity  and 
there  is  considerable  buying  going  on  for  Russia. 
Due  to  the  policy  of  the  Russian  Government  in 
sending  out  various  trade  delegations  to  various 
parts  of  the  world  with  unlimited  authority,  the 
spheres  of  activity  of  these  trade  delegations  over- 
lap and  conflict.  This  produces  more  or  less  dis- 
organization and  confusion,  as  all  motion  pictures 
that  go  into  Russia  are  either  purchased  eventually 
by  the  Russian  Government  or  by  quasi  companies 
in  which  the  Russian  Government  is  interested  with 
private  capital,  and  as  these  concerns  are  not  dis- 
posed to  pay  cash — in  fact,  the  Government  does 
not  pay  cash  but  issues  warrants,  there  must  of 
necessity  be  several  hands  through  which  the  pro- 
ductions pass  before  they  reach  the  ultimate  buyer 
in  order  to  provide  the  cash  money  which  the 
American  distributor  demands  before  turning  over 
its  productions  for  that  market.  In  other  words, 
bankers  and  private  speculators  with  ready  money 
to  pay  and  willing  to  accept  the  Government's 
warrants,  act  as  middle  men  and  exact  a  profit 
that  really  should  be  divided  between  the  seller 
and  the  ultimate  buyer.  At  the  present  time  there 
does  not  seem  to  be  any  indication  of  improvement 
of  this  situation,  although,  as  I  have  previously 
stated  in  this  article,  buying  activities  in  Russia 
during  the  past  year  have  increased  and  show  no 
sign  of  diminution  for  the  coming  year. 

Turning  our  attention  to  the  Orient,  Japan  has 
very  quickly  recovered  from  the  catastrophe  that 
destroyed  about  40%  of  its  theaters,  and  there  is 
reason  to  seriously  believe  but  that  the  motion 
picture  business  there  should  hold  its  own  and 
pursue  a  natural  evolution  of  improvement.  How- 
ever, the  American  motion  picture  production 
never  will  command  the  hold  in  Japan  it  has  gain- 
ed in  some  of  the  foreign  countries,  like  Europe, 
for  the  reason  that  on  account  of  the  extreme 
racial  differences  between  the  Caucasian  and  the 
Japanese,  the  Japanese  production  of  motion  pic- 
tures, which  is  quite  an  extensive  business  in 
Japan,  need  not  fear  any  fatal  competition  from 
either  American  or  European  productions.

Not  much  improvement  can  be  looked  forward 
to  in  China  due  generally  to  unsettled  conditions 
and  the  fact  that  motion  picture  theaters  are  few 
and  confined  almost  exclusively  to  seaport  cities. 
The  motion  picture  has  not  yet  made  any  im- 
pression upon  the  vast  population  of  the  Chinese 
interior. 

Conditions  in  India  remain  about  the  same. 
There  is  no  serious  effort  being  made  there  to 
vigorously  prosecute  the  advancement  of  the 
motion  picture  nor  is  there  anything  on  the  hori- 
zon to  indicate  other  than  next  year  will  he  about 
the  same  at  last. 

Not  much  can  be  expected  from  the  Dutch  East 
Indies  as  that  part  of  the  world  is  in  a  serious 
depression  due  in  a  large  measure  to  taxation  and 
the  lack  of  any  serious  commercial  development 
being  undertaken  commercially  by  the  Homeland 
Holland. 

Australia  is  alive,  progressive  and  on  the  upwaril 
trend  in  every  way,  and  it  is  my  belief  that  the 
motion  picture  business  is  in  a  healthier  copdi 
tion  in  Australia  than  any  other  counrty  of  the 
world  outside  of  the  United  States.  This  should 
continue,  because  the  Australian  showman  is  alive, 
progressive  and  up-to-date.  The  country  is  prac- 
tically undeveloped  on  account  of  the  vast  wealth 
and  expanse  of  the  country  remaining  yet  to  be 
touched,  but  despite  that,  the  motion  picture  has 
reached  the  highest  stage  of  development  through- 
out all  of  Australasia. 

South  America  falls  into  two  principal  classi- 
fications— Brazil  and  the  Argentine.  The  Brazil- 
ian territory  should  slightly  improve.  There  are 
some  very  fine  theaters  being  built  in  Brazil, 
mainly  by  Francisco  Serrador,  who  is  the  leading 
exhibitor  and  distributor  there,  and  the  operation 
of  these  theaters  on  up-to-date  American  lines 
will  naturally  have  a  healthy  general  effect  upon 
the  industry. 

Conditions  in  the  Argentine  are  stagnant  and 
there  is  nothing  to  my  knowledge  being  done  by 
any  of  the  factors  of  the  industry  there  that  spells 
advancement. 


Mexico,  during  the  past  year,  has  considerably 
improved  and  will  continue  to  improve  as  long 
as  political  conditions  remain  stabilized. 

It  will  thus  be  seen  from  the  foregoing  detailed 
summary  of  the  world  as  a  whole,  that  generally 
speaking,  with  the  exception  of  the  Dutch  East 
Indies,  none  of  the  countries  indicate  any  marked 
retrogression  while  most  of  the  important  ones 
hold  forth  possibilities  for  improvement,  so  that 
we  feel  pustified  in  saying  that  on  the  whole,  mo- 
tion picture  conditions  in  foreign  territories  will 
improve  this  coming  year. — E.  BRUCE  JOHN- 
SON, Asso    First  Nat'l  Pictures. 


BANNER   YEAR   IN   SIGHT   FOR  EXPORT 
TRADE 

It  is  my  belief  that  the  export  business  of  the 
leading  motion  picture  companies  engaged  in  the 
production  and  distribution  of  high  grade  pictures 
is  facing  a  year  of  the  greatest  prosperity  ever 
known  in  the  industry.  Already  there  are  numer- 
ous signs  pointing  to  a  steady  and  consistent 
growth  in  the  foreign  business  of  the  American 
industry  during  the  year  1925.  I  have  never  felt 
so  encouraged  over  the  prospects  for  the  future, 
and  since  my  return  from  a  visit  of  nearly  four 
months  to  Europe  I  have  received  even  more  con- 
vincing evidence  of  better  days  to  come  from  all 
parts  of  the  world. 

The  greatest  need  of  the  European  industry  is 
more  first  class  theaters,  and  I  am  happy  to  state 
that  steps  have  already  been  taken  to  realize  this 
need.  The  new  Plaza  in  London  will  be  ready 
early  in  1925,  and  the  opening  of  this  beautiful 
theater  will  be  an  event  which  should  affect  most 
favorably  all  export  interests  engaged  in  the  pic- 
ture business  throughout  Europe  and  greatly 
stimulate  other  theater  building.  The  proper  ex- 
ploitation and  presentation  of  the  best  American 
pictures  will  greatly  enhance  the  reputation  of 
American  producers  with  the  European  public. 

Europe  today  stands  in  need  of  one  hundred 
first  class  theaters  in  the  larger  cities  and,  of 
course,   hundreds  of  others  will  be  required  for

the  smaller  towns  and  cities.  With  at  least  one 
modern,  first  class  theater  in  each  of  the  principal 
cities  to  blaze  the  way  in  exploitation  and  pre- 
sentation, the  rental  business  would  revolutionized. 
And  the  realization  of  such  a  program  is  not  far 
distant,  in  my  opinion,  because  there  is  an  awaken- 
ed interest  in  theater  building  throughout  Europe. 

The  impetus  given  the  movement  for  theater 
construction  is  by  no  means  confined  to  Europe. 
Already  three  splendid  theaters  have  been  com- 
pleted in  Sydney,  Melbourne  and  Wellington  and 
American  pictures  will  enjoy  the  best  presenta- 
tion they  have  ever  known  in  Australasia  during 
the  coming  year. — E.  E.  SHAUER,  Famous  Play- 
ers-Lasky  Corp. 


OPTIMISTIC 

The  year  1925  is  one  that  exporters  of  American 
motion  picture  productions  look  forward  to  with 
confidence  and  large  expectations.  This  past 
year  has  also  been  a  year  of  great  accomplishment 
abroad. 

Throughout  1924,  Central  Europe  bought  pro- 
ductions from  the  American  producer  with  in- 
creasing insistence,  particulai  improvement  having 
taken  place  in  the  major  market  of  that  group — 
Germany.  The  Balkan  territories  have  materially 
improved  their  purchasing  records  of  American 
photoplays.  In  fact,  there  has  not  been  one  ter- 
ritory in  Europe  where  there  has  been  not  sub- 
stantial progress  along  the  said  line.  Russia  has 
given  evidence  of  increasing  activity  for  the 
American  exported  and  probably  during  1925  will 
give  further  evidence  of  its  returning  film  buying 
power.  South  America,  Australasia,  the  Far  East, 
Africa  and  other  markets  have  in  no  way  slackened 
in  their  recognition  of  the  American  production. 

1925  therefore,  should  witness  more  foreign 
selling  offices  abroad  for  the  important  inde- 
pendent film  export  organizations  and  should  like- 
wise witness  the  extension  of  foreign  distributing 
exchanges  on  the  part  of  the  large  American  "pro- 
ducer-distributor" corporations. 

As  to  the  affairs  of  our  own  company,  we 
have  every  confidence  that  1925  will  find  markedly 
increaseil  sales  activity  and  greatly  augmented  re- 
sults from  our  home  office  in  New  York  as  well 
as  from  each  of  our  foreign  sales  offices.  Genuine 
box  office  productions  bring  their  own  reward. 
The  foreign  buyers  know  where  they  can  be  ob- 
tained.— WILLIAM  M.  VOGEL. 


SEES  IMPROVEMENT  IN  SIGHT 

Conditions  in  the  most  important  foreign  ter- 
ritory, the  United  Kingdom,  have  been  far  from 
bright  in  the  past  year  and  a  half.  Productions 
of  the  independent  market  brought  during  that 
period  about  half  of  what  they  used  to  bring  be- 
fore. Distribution  in  the  U.  K.  for  independent 
English  distributors  was  exceedingly  difficult  on 
account  of  the  keen  competition  of  the  big 
American  organizations  who  have  their  own  ex- 
changes in  that  territory.  Quite  a  few  well  known 
concerns   disappeared   or   changed  hands. 

It  is  only  since  a  month  or  so  that  conditions 
slightly  improved  and  to  my  mind  conditions  in 
England  will  only  then  be  up  to  normal  again 
when  economic  conditions  there  have  improved 
and  the  number  of  unemployed  has  considerably 
decreased. 

Central  and  Eastern  Europe  get  more  lively  and 
if  it  would  not  be  for  the  "kontingent"  in  Ger- 
many, conditions  there  would  look  very  bright. 

Conditions  in  France  are  still  very  bad.  French 
concerns  have  still  the  same  difficulty  to  keep 
going.  Pathe  consortium  seems  to  be  again  in 
difficulties,  they  always  were,  and  it  looks  that 
they  want  now  Charles  Pathe  to  step  in  again 
and  save  them  from  going  bankrupt.  I  have  re- 
ceived information  from  that  territory  that  it  is 
expected  that  after  regular  reparation  payments 
by  Germany  are  made,  which  through  the  Dawe's 
plan  now  seems  likely  that  French  conditions  will 
improve  within  the  next  year  or  so. 


Conditions  in  the  rest  of  the  world  not  mentioned 
above  are  generally  improving  and  it  is  on  that 
account  that  values  in  the  foreign  field  changed 
considerably  in  the  last  year.  Where  two  years 
ago  England  was  figured  as  having  50r/o  of  the 
foreign  rights,  it  is  today  less  than  40%  and  ter- 
ritories that  were  practically  worthless  have  made 
up  for  these  10%  or  15%,  to  such  an  qxtent  that 
a  picture  brings  today  more  money  in  the  entire 
foreign  market  than  two  years  ago  when  conditions 
were  regarded  favorable.— J.  C.  BARNSTYN, 
The  British  &  Continental  Trading  Co.,  Inc. 


ANTICIPATES  FURTHER  PROGRESSION 

There  is  a  tendency  on  the  part  of  all  foreign 
countries  to  be  exceedingly  progressive  in  their 
handling  of  the  film  industry  of  the  future. 

They  are  progressive  because  they  are  trying  to 
adopt  American  methods  of  attracting  people  to 
theaters  and  bringing  to  the  notice  of  the  public 
the  constant  desire  of  the  American  film  industry 
to  uplift  and  education  In  the  right  direction. 

William  Fox  has  been  exerting  every  ounce  of 
energy  at  his  command  to  contribute  his  share  in 
bringing  order  out  of  chaos  in  many  foreign  terri- 
tories where  the  film  business  had  not  advanced 
beyond  its  infancy  stage  of  development. 

It  is  being  realized  to  a  greater  extent  every 
day  that  American  producers  and  distributors  are 
not  trespassers  in  foreign  territory,  but  on  the 
contrary,  have  every  desire  to  cooperate  and  assist 
the  foreign  exhibitor  to  increase  his  revenue  at  the 
box  office  and  to  instil  in  his  mind  the  necessity 
of  proper  presentation  with  the  right  quality  of 
production  in  order  to  attract  and  retain  the  in- 
terest of  the  public  at  large. 

Within  the  next  five  years  there  will  be  further 
progression  because  those  participating  in  the 
picture  industry  of  foreign  countries  have  learned 
to  realize  that  our  industry  is  here  to  stay  and 
has  become  a  stablilized,  substantial  and  sound 
business — S.   E.   ABEL,   Fox   Film  Corp. 


SEES  CHANGES  COMING 

The  demand  for  American  pictures  continues 
strong  and  with  the  opening  up  of  some  of  the 
markets  which  have  been  dull  for  years  the  pros- 
pects are  very  promising.  The  outlook  is  so  good 
that  the  larger  companies  are  considering  more 
seriously  than  ever  the  establishment  of  addi- 
tional distributing  organizations  of  their  own  in 
the  foreign  markets,  even  in  the  smaller  terri- 
tories. This  generally  means  that  an  American 
manager  is  sent  to  take  charge  of  the  business, 
sometimes  taking  with  him  a  number  of  Ameri- 
cans to  assist  him.  The  expenses  of  such  an  or- 
ganization are  much  greater  than  the  cost  of  dis- 
tribution to  a  native  concern  with  the  result  that 
the  exhibitors  are  eventually  compelled  to  stand 
the  difference.  Little  by  little,  as  the  American 
concerns  take  hold  in  the  foreign  markets,  the 
business  of  the  local  distributors  is  decreased  and 
in  some  cases  entirely  destroyed.  The  exhibitors 
in  different  territories  are  beginning  to  resent  the 
foreign  invasion  which  seems  to  take  the  aspect 
of  an  American  monopoly  of  the  local  motion 
picture  business.  The  cost  of  operating  a  foreign 
organization  is  sometimes  25%  greater  than  the 
cost  to  the  local  people  and  the  exhibitors  in 
many  places  are  beginning  to  balk  against  the  in- 
creased prices. 

Some  of  the  trade  papers  in  France  have  re- 
cently called  attention  to  this  condition  and  have 
opened  discussions  looking  towards  methods  of 
protection. 

The  local  distributors,  in  order  to  exist,  are 
©bliged  to  increase  their  purchase  of  European- 
made  material.  This  material  is  gradually  obtain- 
ing greater  acceptance  because  the  exhibitors  pre- 
fer to  do  business  with  their  old  established  friends 
rather  than  with  foreigners.  The  increased  outlet 
for  European  films  will  strengthen  the  producers 
of  these  films  and  lower  the  prices  American 
companies  will  be  able  to  obtain  for  their  product. 


00 1 


Although  the  results  of  this  condition  have  not 
yet  been  strongly  felt,  the  increase  in  the  number 
of  American  distributors  will  surely  bring  about 
a  change  in  foreign  affairs  because  in  some  cases 
there  will  now  be  three  or  four  separate  American 
organizations  distributing  their  own  product  in 
a  certain  territory  where  the  combined  product  of 
these  companies  was  previously  handled  by  a 
single  local  distributor  at  a  considerably  lower 
cost  of  distribution. 

The  prices  asked  by  some  of  the  producers  for 
foreign  rights  are  also  out  of  proportion.  Even 
the  basis  of  seating  capacity  of  theaters  is  im- 
proper for  the  establishment  of  reasonable  prices 
for  films  in  some  foreign  territory.  Careful  ob- 
servers in  Argentina,  for  example,  have  been  con 
vinced  that  although  a  theater  may  be  built  to 
accommodate  the  Saturday  and  Sunday  crowds, 
dining  the  week  the  theaters  do  almost  no  busi- 
ness because  the  general  public  there  is  not  in  the 
financial  position  to  visit  the  theaters  more  than 
once  or  twice  a  week  whereas  it  is  known  that 
in  the  States  many  families  go  to  the  "movies'" 
three  and  even  four  times  weekly." 

The  per  capita  wealth  of  many  countries  is  not 
to  be  compared  with  that  of  the  United  States. 
From  the  reports  of  income  taxes  paid  last  year 
in  the  United  States  the  money  paid  by  only  the 
three  largest  taxpayers  would  be  sufficient  to  satis- 
fy the  entire  yearly  government  budget  of  a 
couple  of  South  American  countries. — JACOBO 
GLUCKSMANN. 


MUST    CULTIVATE  INTERNATIONALISM 

It  has  been  truthfully  said  that  "the  same  thing 
looks  different  to  everybody — it  depends  on  where 
you  sit." 

It  is  therefore  surprising  and  noteworthy  that  all 
transat'antic  travellers  returning  from  Europe, 
whether  thev  be  producers  or  distributors — whether 
they   be   affiliated    with    the   big   line   companies  or 


independent  —  whether  European  or  American —  all 
return  with  a  unanimity  of  opinion  regarding  for 
eign  conditions  that  is  perhaps  unique  in  motion 
picture  annals. 

To  summarize:  Here  is  how  marketing  condi- 
tions stand   at   the  end  of  the  year  1924. 

England-  the  backbone  of  the  foreign  market, 
has  been  literally  and  actually  undermined  through 
the  price  cutting  methods  of  some  of  the  largest 
American  distributors  who  have  their  own  renting 
agencies  throughout  the  United  Kingdom.  The 
result  is  these  very  distributors  are  not  getting  the 
revenue  for  their  product  from  the  English  market 
to  which  normally,  they  would  be  entitled,  except 
for  the  large  and  expensive  super  features. 

On  the  Continent — generally  speaking — conditions 
are  not  much  better — the  cry  there  too,  is  for  stu 
pendous  productions. 

The  Latin-American  countries  continue  to  be 
steady,  consistent  buyers  of  all  kinds  of  American 
pictures,  and  pay  well,  especially  for  outstanding 
pictures. 

The  Orient— -particularly,  Japan — through  econo- 
mic and  industrial  conditions  are  buying  American 
films  in  limited  quantities,  but  are  ready  to  take 
on  at  all  times,  meritorious  productions  at  good 
prices. 

Australia  is  still  a  fertile  field  for  American 
pictures  especially   for  those  of  the   higher  grade. 

The  fault  is  not  nearly  so  much  with  the  con- 
ditions in  the  respective  territories — but  rather 
with  the  type  of  films  that  are  being  produced  in 
this  country.  We  have  consistently  contended  that 
we  Americans  must  adopt  a  wider  viewpoint  in 
the  selection  of  the  material  for  the  production  of 
our  pictures.  We  excel  in  every  branch  in  the 
making  of  pictures.  We  have  the  best  directors, 
writers,  photographers,  actors,  advertising  methods, 
exploitation — in  every  branch  of  the  production  of 
pictures — American  technique  outclasses  the  world.

We  must  obtain  the  wider  viewpoint  and  get  away 
from  the  provincialism  of  the  stories  we  screen. 
We  must  cultivate  an  internationalism  in  our  back- 
ground of  pictures.  We  are  primarily,  amusement 
providers,  and  propagandists,  secondarily. 

If  we  are  to  retain  our  supremacy,  we  can  do  so

it  will  be  the  survival  of  the  fittest — or  better  yet — 
the  survival  of  the  best. 

Therefore,   though   it   has   been  said  before — the 
American   producer—  whether   independent   or  allied 
— can  continue  his  hold  on  the  foreign  market  by 
giving     the     world ....  BETTER  PICTURES.

PREDICTS  A   NEW  RECORD' 

The  season  of  1923-24  insofar  as  it  concerned 
the  foreign  market,  in  my  opinion  was  one  of  the 
most  successful  years  that  the  Independent  Distri 
hutors  have  had.  A  great  many  territories  here- 
tofore closed  to  Independent  pictures  were  opened 
up  to  them  during  that  year.  The  serial  market 
remained  strong  and  prices  kept  up  to  those  which 
followed  the  war  period.  A  great  many  markets 
which  heretofore  had  been  closed  to  Independent 
pictures  became  buying  territories  during  the  1923- 
24  season. 

I  look  for  the  new  season  of  1924-25  to  even 
exceed  the  last  season  insofar  as  it  concerns  In- 
dependent pictures.  Already  our  offices  have  re- 
ceived many  inquiries,  cables  and  letters  concerning 
our  1924-25  output.  It  seems  to  be  the  desire 
of  the  foreign  buyer  at  this  time  not  to  buy  simply 
a  picture  here  and  there,  but  to  contract  and 
build  up  the  output  of  one  organization.  We  are 
perhaps  a  little  better  situated  than  most  of  the 
Independents  in  that  we  have  for  distribution  start- 
ing the  new  season  two  serials.  In  a  great  many 
foreign  terrritories  the  serial  is  in  great  demand 
and  there  is  much  competitive  bidding  for  it.  This 
tends  to  make  the  market  more  valuable  as  well 
for  the  features  distributed  by  the  same  organi- 
zation. 

There  has  been  less  pirating  of  film  and  in- 
vading of  territory  in  the  past  year  which  would 
indicate  that  the  foreign  market  has  reached  a 
more  conservative  and  stablilized  position. 

As  previously  remarked,  we  predict  for  the  new 
season  a  record  breaking  foreign  market  for  the 
Independents.— W.  RAY  JOHXSTOX,  Rayart

CONDITIONS  IN  ORIENTAL  TERRITORIES 

By  Horace  T.  Clarke,  First  National  Pictures 
After  seven  years'  intimate  association  with  mo- 
tion picture  activities  in  Oriental  territories,  I 
cannot  help  but  feel  that  the  future  of  the  Ameri- 
can motion  picture  in  these  territories  at  this 
time  never  looked  brighter  or  more  substantial. 

As  I  look  back  on  the  strictly  limited  possi- 
bilities of  former  years  it  is  at  least  very  gratifying 
to  note  the  remarkable  advance  that  American 
motion  picture  product  has  made  at  this  date. 
First  National  will  take  out  of  the  Orient  this 
year  an  amount  well  into  six  figures.  There  is  no 
reason  in  the  world  why  present  results  cannot  be 
increased  tremendously  within  the  next  five  years. 
These  Oriental  territories  know  no  limitations  if 
American  motion  picture  interests  will  only  real- 
ize the  latent  potentialities  of  this  virgin  field. 
There  are  approxmately  nine  hundred  million 
people  living  between  Bombay  and  Yokohoma  with 
less  than  twenty-five  hundred  motion]  picture 
houses  (many  of  which  are  little  better  than  sheds) 
to  cater  to  these  masses.  From  these  figures,  some 
idea  may  be  gained  as  to  the  possibilities  for 
really  constructive  development  in  this  immensely 
populated  field.  I  am  quite  safe  in  saying  that 
we  are  today  getting  almost  S00%  more  per  pic- 
ture for  our  pictures  than  we  were  getting  five 
years  ago. 

The  Japanese  Boycott  Fiasco 

The  most  interesting  incident  of  the  year  was 
the    Japanese    boycott    of   American    films.  This 


boycott,  however,  proved  a  fiasco  for  it  lasted 
officially  from  July  1st  to  July  12th  and  the 
demand  for  American  made  productions  in  prefer- 
ence to  Japanese  product  following  the  termina 
tion  of  the  boycott  was  so  pronounced  that  the 
Japanese  exhibitors  were  forced  to  declare  the 
boycott  off  and  American  productions  were  again 
released  in  all  leading  Japanese  theaters,  As  a  re- 
sult of  the  boycott,  Japanese  exhibitors  suffered 
to  a  far  greater  extent  than  American  distributors. 

On  my  departure  from  Japan  in  August  of  this 
year,  I  found  picture  conditions  there  to  be  prac- 
tically normal  and  a  very  big  business  expected 
this  coming  winter. 

While  comparatively  small  number  of  English 
films  have  been  released  in  India  and  China,  quite 
a  considerable  number  of  German  films  have 
found  an  outlet  in  the  Dutch  East  Indies  and 
Japan.  American  productions  are  tremendously 
popular  with  movie  fans  throughout  all  countries 
of  the  Orient.  The  stars  that  are  successful  in 
America  are  generally  successful  in  Oriental  coun- 
tries. For  instance,  Norma  and  Constance  Tal- 
madge,  Jackie  Coogan,  Richard  Barthelmess,  Cor- 
inne  Griffith,  Coleen  Moore,  Barbara  La  Marr 
and  Milton  Sills,  Chaplin,  Harold  Lloyd,  Valen- 
tino and  Fairbanks  are  popular  wherever  and 
whenever  their  pictures  are  presented. 

In  India,  the  Hindu  women  seldom  patronize 
the  movies.  When  they  do  so,  they  arrive  at  the 
theater  heavily  veiled  and  are  escorted  to  specially 
prepared  compartments  which  are  screened  with 
mosquito  netting  so  that  they  are  protected  from 
the  view  of  the  audience.  When  the  lights  are 
dimmed  and  the  show  commences,  these  mosquito 
curtains  are  drawn  aside  until  the  program  is 
completed.  When  the  performance  is  completed, 
they  return,  heavily  veiled,  to  their  harems.  These 
women  are  of  course  dressed  in  their  native  cos- 
tume and  generally  bedecked  with  many  jewels. 
Their  noses  are  studded  with  precious  stones  and 
their  ankles  are  adorned  with  bracelets. 

Progress  Made  in  India 

Considerable  progress  has  been  made  in  India 
in  the  production  of  Indian  films  in  which  are 
used  the  old  legendary  stories  of  India  with  a 
Hindu  cast.  Instead  of  building  sets,  they  make 
use  of  painted  backgorunds. 

Many  of  the  theaters  in  India  cater  to  native 
audiences  only,  but  where  American  productions 
are  presented,  a  special  section  of  the  house  is 
set  apart  from  the  native  audience,  the  prices 
charged  being  considerably  less  than  the  prices 
charged  foreigners.  Matinees  are  very  popular 
with  children,  and,  with  regard  to  Oriental  audi- 
ences, exclusive  of  India  and  Java,  women  pre- 
dominate. The  seating  capacity  of  the  theaters 
varies,  the  average  for  the  smaller  houses  being 
five  hundred  seats,  while  the  larger  houses,  main- 
ly for  natives  only,  have  a  seating  capacity  of 
twelve  to  fifteen  hundred. 

The  musical  accompaniments,  except  in  the  na- 
tive houses,  are  the  same  as  those  used  in  this 
country.  Pictures  are  as  a  rule  scored  locally 
with  the  exception  of  those  pictures  which  have 
special  musical  scores  sent  out  with  the  picture. 

In  Java,  many  of  the  theaters  are  built  in  two 
sections.  The  front  of  the  house  is  patronized 
by  foreigners  while  the  natives  sit  behind  the 
screen  and  view  the  picture  from  this  angle.  It 
is  impossible  for  them  to  read  the  subtitles  but 
this  is  of  no  account  inasmuch  as  the  native  reads 
neither  English  nor  Dutch.  The  native  pays  the 
equivalent  of  about  three  American  cents  to  see 
his  picture  entertainment,  and  at  the  present  time 
earns  about  forty  American  cents  a  day  for  his 
labors.  Admission  prices  for  foreigners  are  much 
about  the  same  as  paid  in  America.  There  are 
a  number  of  open  air  theaters  in  the  Dutch  East 
Indies  which  are  particularly  suited  to  the  tropical 
climate  being  much  more  comfortable  than  the 
usual  type  of  theater  in  other  countries. 

There  is  a  very  strict  censorship  of  pictures 
throughout  all  Oriental  countries.  Pictures  de- 
picting scenes  of  torture  or  showing  the  white  race 
in  a  degrading  atmosphere,  attempts  successful  or 


663 


otherwise  to  undermine  governmental  authority, 
brutality  in  any  form,  revolution  and  objectionable 
religious  thenfts  are  severely  censored  and  in  some 
cases  banned  entirely. 

The  picture  business  in  the  Orient  is,  as  in  Am- 
erica, seasonable.  The  monsoonial  rains  start  in 
lapan  during  the  month  of  June  and  sweep  right 
across  the  Orient  finishing  in  India  about  the  end 
of  October.  During  the  summer  months  and  the 
rainy  season,  attendances  fall  off  considerably.  The 
big  business  season  starts  as  a  rule  in  November 
and  finishes  in  May. 

Programs  Vary 

The  length  of  programs  vary — most  countries  of 
of  Orient  use  about  nine  to  ten  thousand  feet. 
The  program  in  Japan,  however,  is  sometimes 
as  high  as  from  twenty  to  twenty-five  thousand 
feet.  In  the  Phillipine  Islands  and  Japan,  they 
run  continuous  shows  but  in  the  other  countries 
of  the  Orient  they  average  two  shows  each  even- 
ing with  matinees  on  Saturdays,  Sundays  and 
holidays. 

Considerable  space  is  given  in  the  vernacular 
newspapers  to  movie  news  and  the  leading  film 
distributors  take  a  large  amount  of  space  for 
advertising  their  pictures  as  this  is  the  main 
method  in  boosting  pictures  before  and  during  their 
release. 

The  Filipino  is  an  ardent  movie  fan.  He  lives 
for  today  and,  as  a  rule,  is  thriftless  and  prefers 
to  spend  his  earnings  on  the  movies,  prize-fights, 
cock-fights,  clothes  and  cheap  jewelry.  In  Manila, 
a  number  of  the  leading  houses  run  vaudeville  in 
conjunction  with  their  pictures  which  seems  to  be 
a  very  popular  form  of  entertainment. 

In  China,  a  very  interesting  development  has 
taken  place.  In  the  first  place,  the  percentage 
of  Chinese  attending  foreign  theaters  in  which 
American  pictures  are  shown  has  increased  from 
twenty-five  to  sixty  per  cent  during  the  past  two 
years,  showing  the  popularity  of  American  pictures 
with  the  educated  Chinese.  A  number  of  Chinese 
productions  have  recently  been  presented  in  Chin- 
ese theaters  and  these  have  been  enormously  popu- 


lar with  the  lower  classes,  more  popular  in  fact 
than  the  American  product  for  the  reason  that 
the  Chinese  productions  naturally  are  patronized 
by  much  larger  audiences. 

It  is  quite  a  common  sight  to  see  hundreds 
of  well  dressed  Chinese  drive  off  in  their  limousines 
after  a  performance.  These  people  patronize  the 
high  price  seats  and  as  a  rule  they  take  their 
entire  families  with  them  and  as  the  average  well- 
to-do  Chinaman  has  many  wives,  this  family  is 
often  considerable. 

The  recent  floods  in  Tientsin  and  the  present 
war  in  China  are  causing  great  confusion  and 
hardship  in  all  lines  of  business.  Northern  China 
particularly  is  greatly  disorganized  for  these  rea- 
sons. 

Production    in  China 

Plans  are  now  being  made  for  the  production 
of  Chinese  pictures  on  a  very  large  scale.  These 
pictures  will  be  presented  in  Chinese  theaters 
only,  not  only  in  the  treaty  ports  but  throughout 
the  interior  of  China.  Several  concerns  in  Shang- 
hai have  already  built  laboratories  and  considerable 
interest  has  been  shown  by  the  Chinese  in  applying 
for  work  in  the  picture  production.  One  concern 
advertised  for  players  and  within  twenty-four  hours 
had  received  over  five  hundred  applications  for  em- 
ployment. 

The  Japanese  have  made  remarkable  progress  in 
rebuilding  their  theaters  destroyed  by  the  recent 
earthquake.  In  fact,  between  eighty  and  ninety 
per  cent  of  the  houses  destroyed  have  been  re- 
built. The  rebuilt  houses  are  temporary  places 
constructed  of  wood.  The  reason  for  this  being 
that  the  devastated  area  is  being  resurveyed  and 
Tokyo  and  Yokohoma  will  be  rebuilt  on  western 
lines.  That  is,  they  will  have  big  broad  streets 
and  the  type  of  building  which  will  replace  the 
present  structures  within  the  next  two  years  will 
be  of  American  design  and  construction.  In  the 
meantime,  building  permits  are  beinc1  given  by  the 
reconstruction  board  for  temporary  buildings  onlv 
for  the  reason  that  most  of  these  temporary  build 
ings  will  have  to  be  demolished  when  the  plans  for

the  permanent  rebuilding  of  the  cities  have  been 
completed. 

Very  little  American  advertising  material  is 
used  in  Japan  for  the  presentation  of  American 
pictures.  They  use  their  own  posters  which  arc 
generally  about  the  size  of  a  twenty-four  sheet 
and  these  are  placed  in  front  of  the  theaters 
and  are  the  Japanese  artist's  conception  of  some 
scene  from  the  picture.  American  press  stills  and 
photographs  are  used  very  largely  for  their  lobby 
displays. 

In  India,  China  and  Japan,  prints  with  full 
English  titles  are  supplied,  whereas  in  Java,  prints 
with  Dutch- English  titles  on  the  same  frame  are 
used  and  in  the  Philippines,  Spanish-English  titles 
on  the  same  frame  are  required. 

The  Speech  Man 

In  Japan,  the  majority  of  the  audience  cannot 
read  English  so  they  use  a  Benshi  or  speech-man. 
This  speech-man  translates  the  titles  as  they  ap- 
pear on  the  screen  and,  if  the  story  is  somewhat 
involved,  he  ffives  his  own  interpretation  of  it  and 
explains  to  the  audience  carefully  just  what  is 
taking  place.  This  helps  them  to  better  under- 
stand the  story.  The  success  of  the  production 
often  rests  with  the  speech-man.  If  his  trans- 
lation of  the  titles  is  not  clear,  the  audience  will 
often  hiss  and  stand  on  the  chairs  showing  dis- 
approval of  the  speech-man's  interpretation. 


In  the  case  of  a  long  picture,  they  usually  have 
two  or  three  speech-men  so  that  each  has  a  rest. 
Each  speech-man  will  translate  about  four  reels 
of  film.  Some  of  the  leading  speech-men  are 
treated  by  the  audience  as  matinee  idols  and  are 
often  presented  by  members  of  the  audience  with 
boquets  and  presents  in  appreciation  of  their  work. 
They  are  well  paid  and  in  some  cases  own  their 
own  theaters. 

In  boosting  a  picture,  large  bamboo  poles  with 
banners  are  sunk  into  slots  in  the  street  im- 
mediately in  front  of  the  picture.  These  bamboo 
banners  give  the  name  of  the  picture  and  the  star 
appearing  therein  and  other  details  of  the  picture. 
Every  Sunday  morning,  a  number  of  the  theaters 
stage  a  parade  and  these  banners  are  carried 
around  the  streets  with  the  theater  orchestra  in  at- 
tendance as  an  aid  to  advertising  the  picture. 

As  the  Japanese  enter  the  theater,  they  have  to 
check  their  shoes  and  are  given  slippers  as  the 
stairs  and  seating  accomodations  are  generally  car- 
pet covered  and  in  some  cases  the  Japanese  sits 
on  cushions  especially  provided  by  the  theater 
management.  The  balance  of  the  upstairs  portion 
is  built  similar  to  foreign  theaters.  When  a  for- 
eigner goes  in,  he  is  compelled  to  put  a  pair  of 
cloth  overshoes  over  his  regular  shoes  before  he  is 
allowed  to  enter  the  theater.

CONDITIONS  SHOW  IMPROVEMENT 

Taking  into  consideration  all  the  facts  of  the 
general  outlook  of  the  foreign  market  today  in 
comparison  to  last  year,  one  may  say  that  condi- 
tions for  American  films  have  improved. 

From  a  production  point  of  view  in  Germany 
and  England,  careful  observance  will  show  that 
production  in  these  countries  lias  been  cut  consid- 
erably. The  output  in  Europe  has  decreased  since 
1922  by  almost  eighty  per  cent.  For  instance,  out 
ot  351  producers  in  Germany  during  the  year  1922, 
no  less  than  220  have  dropped  out  during  the  year 
1923.  This,  of  course,  is  accounted  for  partly 
by  the  serious  competition  of  American  made  films 
which  are  far  superior  in  quality  to  anything  that 
can  be  made  on  the  other  side,  as  well  as  the  in- 
creased cost  of  production.  To  cover  this  increase, 
a  greater  sales  outlook  had  to  be  obtained.  In 
other  words,  the  European  producer  had  to  find 
a  market  for  his  films  outside  the  Continent  of 
Europe  to  cover  his  increased  production  cost 
and  thus  give  better  quality  pictures  in  order  to 
be  able  to  compete  with  the  American  producer. 
This,  of  course,  necessitated  very  careful  consid- 
eration of  the  American  market.  European  pro- 
ducers look  with  longing  eyes  upon  our  lucrative 
field  and  arc  concocting  all  kinds  of  schemes  to 
break  in  and  get  at  least  some  money  out  of  the 
United  States.  As  matters  stand  today,  however, 
the  general  run  of  European  features  are  not  suit- 
able for  the  American  market  and  cannot  be  classed 
at  all  as  competitive.  With  the  exception  of  one 
or  two  outstanding  productions,  the  American  taste 
does  not  desire  pictures  of  a  foreign  type. 

This  has  resulted  in  the  formation  of  various 
combines  in  Europe  as  a  retaliatory  measure  for 
the  purpose  of  keeping  out  American  productions, 
one  result  the  "Kontingent"  in  Germany  which 
restricts  the  importation  of  foreign  made  films 
This  "Kontingent"  is  a  very  heavy  burden  inas- 
much as  the  permit  to  import  is  sold  over  and 
over  again,  each  time  at  a  profit,  and  eventually 
may  cost  as  much  if  not  more  than  the  royalty 


paid  for  that  particular  picture.  This  is  a  very 
heavy  blow  to  tin-  American  exporter  inasmuch 
as  the  German  distributor  will  only  usi-  up  his 
"Kontingent"  on  pictures  of  the  highest  calibre 
and  will  not  waste  it  on  an  ordinary  program  pic- 
ture. Germany,  of  course,  is  the  most  valuable  of 
all  the  Continental  European  territories  maintain- 
ing more  than  3,000  motion  picture  houses. 

The  situation  in  the  United  Kingdom  is  slight- 
ly better.  It  is,  however,  very  difficult  to  get  more 
than  the  standard  price  for  the  ordinary  picture 
of  the  independent  market  but  outstanding  pro- 
ductions with  a  good  dramatic  value  are  easily 
salable  at  good  prices.  In  the  independent  market, 
however,  these  outstanding  features  are  few  and 
far  between. 

In  such  countries  as  France,  Belgium,  Spain, 
Portugal,  and  Italy,  there  is  not  only  a  lack  of 
ready  money  but  an  intense  lack  of  modern  motion 
picture  theaters  and  modern  methods  of  exploi 
tation.  In  parts  of  Scandinavia,  again,  there  are 
close  restrictions  on  the  building  of  theaters,  and 
in  Denmark  general  business  conditions  are  also 
very  unsatisfactory. 

Russia,  despite  many  optimistic  reports  spread 
by  American  film  people  who  went  to  Berlin  for 
a  few  weeks  to  investigate  conditions,  is  as  yet 
to  all  intents  and  purposes,  a  closed  market  for 
our  films.  This  is  chiefly  due  to  the  fact  that 
the  Soviet  government  exercises  a  dominating 
monopoly  over  the  film  business  and  does  not 
desire  to  do  business  with  American  concerns 
chiefly  because  of  the  American  government  s  re- 
fusal to  recognize  the  Soviet  government  in  Rus- 
sia. 

All  things  considered,  there  is  very  little  de- 
mand in  Europe  for  cheap  program  pictures  and 
productions  must  be  of  outstanding  merit  to  find 
a  market  worth  while. 

From  all  angles,  the  situation  on  the  Continent 
is  still  a  very  difficult  one  and  not  anvwhere  near 
normal.—LACY  W.  KASTXER,  Inter  Ocean

578  HOUSES  IN  GREATER  NEW  YORK 

There  are  578  exclusive  picture  theaters  in 
Greater  New  York  with  a  combined  seating  capa- 
city of  428,926.  The  total  revenue  received  by 
the  city  in  license  fees  is  placed  at  $216,500  and 
of  this  amount  picture  theaters  contribute  $81,900. 

The  present  total  compares  with  423  in  1919. 
Aside  from  the  fact  that  existing  theaters  are 
greater  in  number,  they  are  also  of  a  better  grade. 
Many  of  the  smaller  houses  operating  in  1919  have 
been  torn  down  and  replaced  with  modern  struc- 
tures. 


CHICAGO  THEATERS 

It  is  estimated  that  there  are  about  420  places 
of  amusement  in  Chicago,  and  the  city's  licensing 
bureau  computes  the  number  of  film  houses  at 
between   330  and  340.

ACTIVITIES  OF  HAYS  ORGANIZATION 

The  Motion  Picture  Producers  &  Distributors 
of  America,  with  Will  H.  Hays  as  president  and 
with  headquarters  at  469  Fifth  Avenue,  New  York, 
continued  throughout  1924  its  constructive  activi- 
ties and  still  further  increased  its  membership. 

The  organization,  which  came  into  existence 
with  nine  member  companies  in  March,  1922.  now 
includes  the  twenty-three  most  important  producers 
and  distributors  in  the  industry.  The  membership 
at  the  beginning  of  1925  was  as  follows: 

Bray  Productions,  Inc. ;  Buster  Keaton  Produc- 
tions;  Christie  Film  Company;  Distinctive  Pic- 
tures Corp. ;  Eastman  Kodak  Company ;  Educa- 
tional Film  Exchanges,  Inc. ;  Famous  Players- 
Lasky  Corp. ;  First  National  Pictures,  Inc. ;  Fox 
Film  Corp.;  D.  W.  Griffith,  Inc.;  Inspiration  Pic- 
tures. Inc. ;  Kinema  Corp. ;  Kinogram  Publishing 
Corp. ;  Metro-Goldwyn  Distributing  Corp. ;  Prin- 
cipal Pictures  Corp.;  Producers  Distributing  Corp.; 
Ritz-Carlton  Pictures,  Inc.;  Hal  E.  Roach  Stu 
dios;  Jos.  M.  Schenck  Productions,  Inc.;  Tal- 
madge  Producing  Corp. ;  Universal  Pictures  Corp. ; 
Vitagraph,  Inc. ;  Warner  Brothers. 

One  of  the  most  important  efforts  of  the  Hays 
organization  affecting  exhibitor  interests  as  well 
as  those  of  the  producers  and  distributors  was 
the  continuance  and  extension  of  arbitration  in- 
stead of  litigation  in  the  settlement  of  business 
differences. 

At  the  end  of  the  first  year  of  this  plan's 
operation,  more  than  6.000  cases  had  been  heard 
and  satisfactorily  decided.  Only  two  cases  were 
carried  forward  from  the  Arbitration  Boards  to 
the  Courts  of  law.  It  was  conservatively  esti 
mated  that  $1,500,000  was  saved  during  that  fiscal 
year  (ending  early  in  the  summer)  in  legal  fees 
and  costs.

MORE  FANS  READ  PHOTOPLAY  THAN  ALL 
OTHER  FAN  MAGAZINES  PUT  TOGETHER 

THE  managers  of  the  theatres  of  Fresno,  Cali- 
fornia, and  the  trained  investigators  who  con- 
ducted the  investigation  learned  that  of  all  the  patrons, 
49.6  per  cent  read  Photoplay  as  against  46  per  cent 
for  all  the  other  fan  magazines  combined.  The  near- 
est single  competitor  showed  less  than  half  Photo- 
play's readers. 

This,  in  a  measure,  shows  the  actual  proportion  of 
motion  picture  enthusiasts.  It  also  reveals  that  more 
women  read  this  class  of  magazine  than  do  men.  It 
has  been  demonstrated  for  years  that  the  dyed-in-the- 
wool  motion  picture  enthusiasts,  the  people  who  are 
of  more  actual  value  in  the  gross  of  a  picture  than 
any  other  single  influence,  are  the  people  who  read 
the  so-called  fan  magazines. 

The  folks  who  read  Photoplay  are  the  concentrated 
essence  of  word  of  mouth  advertising.  They  are  the 
folks  who  make  or  break  your  picture.  You  can't 
fool  them. 

They  are  the  people  who  discuss  motion  pictures 
more  than  any  other  subject.  Who  know  that  cer- 
tain producers  make  dependable  or  undependable 
types  of  pictures.  That  certain  stars  can  be  counted 
on  to  appear  in  consistently  good  pictures,  in  a  fair 
average  of  good  pictures,  or  consistently  mediocre 
pictures. 

If  there  has  been  any  doubt  in  the  minds  of  anyone 
as  to  the  value  of  Photoplay  type  of  magazines  or  any 
doubt  as  to  the  absolute  supremacy  of  Photoplay 
Magazine  itself  in  the  field,  this  report  should  be 
illuminating.
